Psalmi 148

1 Aleluja! Hvalite Gospoda, nebeščani, hvalite ga v višavah.

Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

2 Hvalite ga vsi angeli njegovi, hvalite ga vse vojske njegove.

Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his host.

3 Hvalita ga solnce in mesec; hvalite ga vse svetle zvezde.

Praise ye him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.

4 Hvalite ga nebes nebésa, in vode, katere so nad tem nebom.

Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

5 Hvali naj ime Gospodovo, kar je na povelje njegovo ustvarjeno bilo takoj.

Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

6 Kar je ustanovil vekomaj, na veke; dal je zapoved, katere naj nobeno ne prestopi.

He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass away.

7 Hvalite Gospoda, zemeljske stvari; zmaji in brezna vsa.

Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

8 Ogenj in toča, sneg in sopara, veter viharni spolnjujoč besedo njegovo.

Fire and hail, snow and vapour; stormy wind, fulfilling his word:

9 Same gore in hribi, drevesa rodovitna, cedre vse;

Mountains and all hills; fruitful trees and all cedars:

10 Same zveri in živina vsa, laznina in tiči krilati.

Beasts and all cattle; creeping things and flying fowl:

11 Kralji zemeljski in narodi vsi; knezi in vsi zemljé sodniki.

Kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth:

12 Mladeniči in tudi device, starci z dečki

Both young men and maidens; old men and children:

13 Hvalijo naj ime Gospodovo, ker vzvišeno je njega samega ime; lepota njegova nad zemljo in nebo.

Let them praise the name of the LORD; for his name alone is exalted: his glory is above the earth and heaven.

14 In rog povišuje svojemu ljudstvu, hvalo vseh, katere sprejema prijazno, Izraelcev, ljudstva bližnjega njemu. Aleluja!

And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
