< Zabbuli 148 >

1 Mutendereze Mukama! Mumutendereze nga musinziira mu ggulu, mumutenderereze mu bifo ebiri waggulu.
Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!
2 Mumutendereze mmwe mwenna bamalayika be, mumutendereze mmwe mwenna eggye lye ery’omu ggulu.
Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
3 Mmwe enjuba n’omwezi mutendereze Mukama, nammwe mwenna emmunyeenye ezaaka mumutendereze.
Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
4 Tendereza Mukama ggwe eggulu eriri waggulu ennyo, naawe amazzi agali waggulu w’eggulu.
Praise him, you heavens of heavens, you waters that are above the heavens.
5 Leka byonna bitendereze erinnya lya Mukama! Kubanga ye yalagira, ne bitondebwa.
Let them praise the LORD’s name, for he commanded, and they were created.
6 Yabinywereza ddala mu bifo byabyo ennaku zonna, n’ateekawo etteeka eritaliggwaawo.
He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
7 Mumutendereze nga musinziira ku nsi, mmwe balukwata n’ebifo byonna eby’omu buziba bw’ennyanja,
Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths,
8 mmwe okumyansa, n’omuzira ogw’amakerenda, n’omuzira ogukutte era n’olufu, naawe kikuŋŋunta, mugondere ekiragiro kye,
lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
9 mmwe agasozi n’obusozi, emiti egy’ebibala n’emivule;
mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
10 ensolo ez’omu nsiko era n’ente zonna, ebyewalula n’ebinyonyi ebibuuka,
wild animals and all livestock, small creatures and flying birds,
11 bakabaka b’ensi n’amawanga gonna, abalangira n’abafuzi bonna ab’ensi,
kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth,
12 abavubuka abalenzi n’abawala; abantu abakulu n’abaana abato.
both young men and maidens, old men and children.
13 Bitendereze erinnya lya Mukama, kubanga erinnya lye lyokka lye ligulumizibwa; ekitiibwa kye kisinga byonna eby’omu nsi n’eby’omu ggulu.
Let them praise the LORD’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
14 Abantu be abawadde amaanyi, era agulumizizza abatukuvu be, be bantu be Isirayiri abakolagana naye. Mutendereze Mukama.
He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his holy ones, even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise the LORD!
