Psalms

148

1Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights.
1Hareruya! Rumbidzai Jehovha, imwi muri kudenga; Murumbidzei panzvimbo dzokumusoro.
2Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts.
2Murumbidzei imwi vatumwa vake vose; Murumbidzei imwi hondo dzake dzose.
3Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.
3Murumbidzei imwi zuva Murumbidzei imwi nyeredzi dzose dzinovhenekera.
4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
4Murumbidzei imwi kudenga kokudenga-denga, Newe mvura zhinji, iri kumusoro kokudenga-denga.
5Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:
5Ngazvirumbidze zita raJehovha; nekuti iye akaraira, zvikasikwa.
6And he established them for ever and ever; he made [for them] a statute which shall not pass.
6Akazvisimbisawo nokusingaperi-peri; Akatema chirevo chisingafaniri kudarikwa.
7Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
7Rumbidzai Jehovha imwi vapasi, imwi zvikara zvegungwa, nezviri makadzika;
8Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;
8Moto nechimvuramabwe, chando noutsi; Dutu guru, rinoita zvaakareva;
9Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars;
9Makomo nezvikomo zvose; Miti inobereka nemisidhari yose;
10Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;
10Mhuka, nezvipfuwo zvose; Zvinokambaira neshiri dzinobhururuka;
11Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;
11Madzimambo apasi nendudzi dzose dzavanhu; Machinda navatongi vose vapasi;
12Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, --
12Majaya nemhandara; Vatana navana;
13Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.
13Ngavarumbidze zita raJehovha; nekuti zita rake roga rakakurumbira; Umambo hwake huri kumusoro kwapasi nokudenga.
14And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah!
14Akasimudza runyanga rwavanhu vake, Kuti arumbidzwe navatsvene vake vose; Naivo vana vaIsiraeri, ivo vanhu vari pedo naye. Hareruya!
