Psalmi 148

1 Aleluja! Hvalite Jahvu s nebesa, hvalite ga u visinama!

Praise the Lord from the heavens, praise him in the heights.

2 Hvalite ga, svi anđeli njegovi, hvalite ga, sve vojske njegove!

Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his hosts.

3 Hvalite ga, sunce i mjeseče, hvalite ga, sve zvijezde svjetlosne!

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

4 Hvalite ga, nebesa nebeska, i vode nad svodom nebeskim!

Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens.

5 Neka hvale ime Jahvino jer on zapovjedi i postadoše.

Let them praise the name of the Lord, for at his command they were made.

6 Postavi ih zauvijek i dovijeka po zakonu koji neće proći.

And he fixed them for ever and ever by a law which they dare not transgress.

7 Hvalite Jahvu sa zemlje, nemani morske i svi bezdani!

Praise the Lord from the earth: you depths, with your monsters, all.

8 Ognju i grÓade, sniježe i maglo, olujni vjetre, što riječ njegovu izvršavaš!

Fire, hail, snow and ice, and stormy wind doing his word.

9 Gore i svi brežuljci, plodonosna stabla i svi cedrovi!

All you mountains and hills, all you fruit trees and cedars,

10 Zvijeri i sve životinje, gmizavci i ptice krilate!

all you wild beasts and tame, creeping things, birds on the wing.

11 Zemaljski kraljevi i svi narodi, knezovi i suci zemaljski!

All you kings and nations of earth; all you princes and judges of earth:

12 Mladići i djevojke, starci s djecom zajedno:

young men and maidens together, old men and children together.

13 nek' svi hvale ime Jahvino, jer jedino je njegovo ime uzvišeno! Njegovo veličanstvo zemlju i nebo nadvisuje,

Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted. Over heaven and earth is his glory.

14 on podiže snagu svom narodu, on proslavlja svete svoje, sinove Izraelove - narod njemu blizak. Aleluja!

He has lifted his people to honor. Wherefore this chorus of praise from his saints, from Israel, the people who stand in his fellowship. Hallelujah.
