Psalms

148

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