Zaburi 148
1 Msifuni Bwana. Msifuni Bwana kutoka mbinguni, msifuni juu vileleni.
Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens. Praise him in the heights.
2 Msifuni, enyi malaika wake wote, msifuni yeye, enyi jeshi lake lote la mbinguni.
Praise ye him, all his agents. Praise ye him, all his host.
3 Msifuni yeye, enyi jua na mwezi, msifuni yeye, enyi nyota zote zingʼaazo.
Praise ye him, sun and moon. Praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Msifuni yeye, enyi mbingu zilizo juu sana, na ninyi maji juu ya anga.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 Vilisifu jina la Bwana kwa maana aliamuru navyo vikaumbwa.
Let them praise the name of Jehovah. For he commanded, and they were created.
6 Aliviweka mahali pake milele na milele, alitoa amri ambayo haibadiliki milele.
He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which shall not pass away.
7 Mtukuzeni Bwana kutoka duniani, ninyi viumbe vikubwa vya baharini na vilindi vyote vya bahari,
Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps,
8 umeme wa radi na mvua ya mawe, theluji na mawingu, pepo za dhoruba zinazofanya amri zake,
fire and hail, snow and vapor, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
9 ninyi milima na vilima vyote, miti ya matunda na mierezi yote,
mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,
10 wanyama wa mwituni na mifugo yote, viumbe vidogo na ndege warukao,
beasts and all cattle, creeping things and flying birds,
11 wafalme wa dunia na mataifa yote, ninyi wakuu na watawala wote wa dunia,
kings of the earth and all peoples, rulers and all judges of the earth,
12 wanaume vijana na wanawali, wazee na watoto.
both young men and virgins, old men and sons.
13 Wote na walisifu jina la Bwana, kwa maana jina lake pekee limetukuka, utukufu wake uko juu ya nchi na mbingu.
Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
14 Amewainulia watu wake pembe, sifa ya watakatifu wake wote, ya Israeli, watu walio karibu na moyo wake. Msifuni Bwana.
And he has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his sanctified, even of the sons of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye Jehovah.
