Zaburi 148
1 Msifuni Yahwe. Msifuni Yahwe, ninyi mlio katika mbingu; msifuni yeye, ninyi mlio juu.
Praise ye Jah! Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens, Praise ye Him in high places.
2 Msifuni yeye, enyi malaika wake wote; msifuni yeye, majeshi ya malaika wake wote.
Praise ye Him, all His messengers, Praise ye Him, all His hosts.
3 Msifuni yeye, enyi jua na mwezi; msifuni yeye, nyota zote zing'aazo.
Praise ye Him, sun and moon, Praise ye Him, all stars of light.
4 Msifuni yeye, enyi mbingu zilizo juu zaidi na maji yaliyo juu ya anga.
Praise ye Him, heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 Na vilisifu jina la Yahwe, maana aliamuru, navyo vikaumbwa.
They do praise the name of Jehovah, For He commanded, and they were created.
6 Pia ameviimrisha milele na milele; naye alitoa amri ambayo haitabadilika.
And He establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.
7 Msifuni yeye kutoka nchi, ninyi viumbe wa baharini na viumbe vyote katika kina cha bahari,
Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
8 moto na mvua ya mawe, theluji na mawingu, upepo wa dhoruba ukitimiza neno lake.
Fire and hail, snow and vapour, Whirlwind doing His word;
9 Msifuni yeye, enyi milima na vilima, miti ya matunda na mierezi yote,
The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
10 wanyama pori na wanyama wafugwao, viumbe vitambaavyo na ndege.
The wild beast, and all cattle, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
11 Msifuni Yahwe, wafalme wa nchi na mataifa yote, wakuu na watawala wote wa nchi,
Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
12 wote vijana wa kiume na vijana wa kike, wazee na watoto.
Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
13 Na walisifu jina la Yahwe, kwa kuwa jina lake pekee limetukuka na utukufu wake umeongezwa juu ya nchi na mbingu.
They praise the name of Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [is] above earth and heavens.
14 Naye ameyainua mapembe ya watu wake kwa ajili ya sifa kutoka kwa waaminifu wake wote, Waisraeli, watu wa karibu naye. Msifuni Yahwe.
And He exalteth the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, a people near Him. Praise ye Jah!
