Psalms 148

1 Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from heaven; praise him in the heights above!

你們要讚美耶和華！ 從天上讚美耶和華， 在高處讚美他！

2 Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly armies!

他的眾使者都要讚美他！ 他的諸軍都要讚美他！

3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!

日頭月亮，你們要讚美他！ 放光的星宿，你們都要讚美他！

4 Praise him, highest heavens, and the waters above the heavens!

天上的天和天上的水， 你們都要讚美他！

5 Let them all praise the Lord and his nature, for he gave the order and they were created.

願這些都讚美耶和華的名！ 因他一吩咐便都造成。

6 He placed them in their positions forever and ever; he established a law that will never end.

他將這些立定，直到永永遠遠； 他定了命，不能廢去。

7 Praise the Lord from the earth, and creatures from all the depths of the seas,

所有在地上的， 大魚和一切深洋，

8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, and stormy wind—everything that does as he commands.

火與冰雹，雪和霧氣， 成就他命的狂風，

9 Mountains and all the hills, fruit trees and all the trees of the forest,

大山和小山， 結果的樹木和一切香柏樹，

10 wild animals and all livestock, crawling animals and wild birds,

野獸和一切牲畜， 昆蟲和飛鳥，

11 earthly kings and all peoples, leaders and rulers of the world,

世上的君王和萬民， 首領和世上一切審判官，

12 young men and women, old people and children—

少年人和處女， 老年人和孩童， 都當讚美耶和華！

13 Let them all praise the Lord, for his reputation is unequalled; his glory is above anything on earth or in heaven.

願這些都讚美耶和華的名！ 因為獨有他的名被尊崇； 他的榮耀在天地之上。

14 He has given his people a source of strength, bringing praise to his faithful followers, the people of Israel who are dear to him. Praise the Lord!

他將他百姓的角高舉， 因此他一切聖民以色列人， 就是與他相近的百姓，都讚美他！ 你們要讚美耶和華！
