1Hareruya! Rumbidzai Jehovha, imwi muri kudenga; Murumbidzei panzvimbo dzokumusoro.
1Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!
2Murumbidzei imwi vatumwa vake vose; Murumbidzei imwi hondo dzake dzose.
2Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
3Murumbidzei imwi zuva Murumbidzei imwi nyeredzi dzose dzinovhenekera.
3Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
4Murumbidzei imwi kudenga kokudenga-denga, Newe mvura zhinji, iri kumusoro kokudenga-denga.
4Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens.
5Ngazvirumbidze zita raJehovha; nekuti iye akaraira, zvikasikwa.
5Let them praise the name of Yahweh, For he commanded, and they were created.
6Akazvisimbisawo nokusingaperi-peri; Akatema chirevo chisingafaniri kudarikwa.
6He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
7Rumbidzai Jehovha imwi vapasi, imwi zvikara zvegungwa, nezviri makadzika;
7Praise Yahweh from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths!
8Moto nechimvuramabwe, chando noutsi; Dutu guru, rinoita zvaakareva;
8Lightning and hail, snow and clouds; 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;
10wild animals and all livestock; small creatures and flying birds;
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 and children:
13Ngavarumbidze zita raJehovha; nekuti zita rake roga rakakurumbira; Umambo hwake huri kumusoro kwapasi nokudenga.
13let them praise the name of Yahweh, for his name alone is exalted. His glory 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!
14He 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!
