< Mapisarema 148 >
1 Rumbidzai Jehovha. Rumbidzai Jehovha kubva kumatenga, murumbidzei panzvimbo dzokumusoro-soro.
Hallelujah. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.
2 Murumbidzei, imi vatumwa vake vose, murumbidzei, imi hondo dzake dzose dzokudenga.
Praise ye Him, all His angels; praise ye Him, all His hosts.
3 Murumbidzei, imi zuva nomwedzi, murumbidzei, imi nyeredzi dzose dzinopenya.
Praise ye Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all ye stars of light.
4 Murumbidzei, imi matenga ari kumusoro-soro, nemi mvura zhinji iri pamusoro pamatenga.
Praise Him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 Ngazvirumbidze zita raJehovha, nokuti akarayira, izvo zvikasikwa.
Let them praise the name of the LORD; for He commanded, and they were created.
6 Akazviisa panzvimbo yazvo nokusingaperi-peri, akapa chirevo chisingazombopfuuri.
He hath also established them for ever and ever; He hath made a decree which shall not be transgressed.
7 Rumbidzai Jehovha imi nyika, imi zvisikwa zvikuru zvegungwa nokwakadzika kwenyanza,
Praise the LORD from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
8 nemi mheni nechimvuramabwe, chando namakore, dutu remhepo rinoita zvaakareva,
Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling His word;
9 imi makomo nemi zvikomo zvose, miti inobereka nemisidhari yose,
Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars;
10 mhuka dzesango nemombe dzose, zvisikwa zvidiki neshiri dzinobhururuka,
Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;
11 Madzimambo enyika nendudzi dzose, imi machinda nemi vatongi vose panyika,
Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;
12 majaya nemhandara, vatana navana.
Both young men and maidens, old men and children;
13 Ngavarumbidze zita raJehovha, nokuti zita rake iye oga iguru; kubwinya kwake kuri pamusoro penyika namatenga.
Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 Akasimudzira vanhu vake runyanga, iyo rumbidzo yavatsvene vake vose, yaIsraeri, vanhu vari pedyo nomwoyo wake. Rumbidzai Jehovha.
And He hath lifted up a horn for His people, a praise for all His saints, even for the children of Israel, a people near unto Him. Hallelujah.
