Psalms 148
1 Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!
Lover Herren fra Himlene, lover ham i det høje!
2 Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
Lover ham, alle hans Engle! lover ham, alle hans Hærskarer!
3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
Lover ham, Sol og Maane! lover ham, alle Lysets Stjerner!
4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, you waters that are above the heavens.
Lover ham, Himlenes Himle! og I Vande, som ere over Himlene!
5 Let them praise Yahweh’s name, for he commanded, and they were created.
De skulle love Herrens Navn; thi han bød, og de bleve skabte.
6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
Og han har stillet dem hen for bestandig, evindelig; han satte dem en Lov, og den skal ikke overskrides.
7 Praise Yahweh from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths,
Lover Herren fra Jorden, I Søuhyrer og alle Dyb!
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
Ild og Hagel, Sne og Røg og Stormvejr, som udretter hans Ord!
9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
I Bjerge og alle Høje, Frugttræer og alle Cedre!
10 wild animals and all livestock, small creatures and flying birds,
I vilde Dyr og alt Kvæg, Kryb og vingede Fugle!
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth,
I Konger paa Jorden og alle Folk, Fyrster og alle Dommere paa Jorden!
12 both young men and maidens, old men and children.
Unge Karle og Jomfruer tillige, de gamle med de unge!
13 Let them praise Yahweh’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
De skulle love Herrens Navn; thi hans Navn alene er ophøjet, hans Majestæt er over Jorden og Himmelen.
14 He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints, even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise Yah!
Og han har ophøjet et Horn for sit Folk, han, der er en Lovsang for alle sine hellige, for Israels Børn, det Folk, der er ham nær. Halleluja!
