Psalms 148
1 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!
Halleluja! Lova Herren frå himmelen, lova honom i det høge!
2 Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
Lova honom, alle hans englar, lova honom, all hans her!
3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
Lova honom, sol og måne, lova honom, alle lysande stjernor!
4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, you waters that are above the heavens.
Lova honom, de himle-himlar, og de vatn ovanfor himlarne!
5 Let them praise the LORD’s name, for he commanded, and they were created.
Dei skal lova Herrens namn, for han baud, og dei vart skapte,
6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
og han stelte deim upp for alltid og æveleg, han gav ei lov som ingen bryt.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths,
Lova Herren frå jordi, de store sjødyr og alle djup,
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy wind, fulfilling his word,
Eld og hagl, snø og eim, du storm som set hans ord i verk,
9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
de fjell og alle haugar, aldetre og alle cedrar,
10 wild animals and all livestock, small creatures and flying birds,
de ville dyr og alt fe, krekande dyr og fljugande fuglar;
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth,
de kongar på jordi og alle folk, de hovdingar og alle domarar på jordi,
12 both young men and maidens, old men and children.
de unge gutar og gjentor, de gamle med dei unge!
13 Let them praise the LORD’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
Dei skal lova Herrens namn, for berre hans namn er høgt, hans herlegdom er yver jord og himmel,
14 He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his holy ones, even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise the LORD!
og han hev lyft upp eit horn for sitt folk, til ein lovsong for alle sine trugne, for Israels born, det folk som er honom nær. Halleluja!
