Psalms 148
1 Praise ye Yah, Praise Yahweh, out of the heavens, Praise him, in the heights;
Halleluja! Pris HERREN i Himlen, pris ham i det høje!
2 Praise him, all his messengers, Praise him, all his host;
Pris ham, alle hans Engle, pris ham, alle hans Hærskarer,
3 Praise him, sun and moon, Praise him, all ye stars of light;
pris ham, Sol og Maane, pris ham, hver lysende Stjerne,
4 Praise him, O ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens;
pris ham, Himlenes Himle og Vandene over Himlene!
5 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for, he, commanded, and they were created;
De skal prise HERRENS Navn, thi han bød, og de blev skabt;
6 So caused he them to stand perpetually—age-abidingly, A decree, hath he given, and it passeth not beyond.
han gav dem deres Plads for evigt, han gav en Lov, som de ej overtræder!
7 Praise Yahweh, out of the earth, sea monsters, and all resounding deeps;
Lad Pris stige op til HERREN fra Jorden, I Havdyr og alle Dyb,
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling his word;
Ild og Hagl, Sne og Røg, Storm, som gør, hvad han siger,
9 Ye mountains, and all hills, fruit trees, and all cedars;
I Bjerge og alle Høje, Frugttræer og alle Cedre,
10 Thou wild-beast, and all ye cattle, crawling creature, and bird of wing;
I vilde Dyr og alt Kvæg, Krybdyr og vingede Fugle,
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Rulers, and all judges of earth;
I Jordens Konger og alle Folkeslag, Fyrster og alle Jordens Dommere,
12 Young men, yea even virgins, elders, and children.
Ynglinge sammen med Jomfruer, gamle sammen med unge!
13 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.
De skal prise HERRENS Navn, thi ophøjet er hans Navn alene, hans Højhed omspænder Jord og Himmel.
14 Therefore hath he exalted a horn for his people, a praise for all his men of lovingkindness, for the sons of Israel—a people near him, Praise ye Yah!
Han løfter et Horn for sit Folk, lovprist af alle sine fromme, af Israels Børn, det Folk, der staar ham nær. Halleluja!
