1 P raise the Lord! Praise the Lord from the heavens; Praise Him in the heights!
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa i runga i nga rangi: whakamoemititia ia i nga wahi tiketike.
2 P raise Him, all His angels; Praise Him, all His hosts!
Whakamoemititia ia, e ana anahera katoa: whakamoemititia ia, e ana mano whaioio.
3 P raise Him, sun and moon; Praise Him, all stars of light!
Whakamoemititia ia, e te ra, e te marama: whakamoemititia ia, e nga whetu whakamarama katoa.
4 P raise Him, highest heavens, And the waters that are above the heavens!
Whakamoemititia ia, e nga rangi o nga rangi, e nga wai hoki o runga atu i nga rangi.
5 L et them praise the name of the Lord, For He commanded and they were created.
Kia whakamoemititia e ratou te ingoa o Ihowa: nana hoki i whakahau, a kua hanga ratou.
6 H e has also established them forever and ever; He has made a decree which will not pass away.
Nana hoki aua mea i whakapumau ake ake: i whakatakotoria e ia he tikanga e kore e taka.
7 P raise the Lord from the earth, Sea monsters and all deeps;
Whakamoemititia a Ihowa, i runga i te whenua, e nga tarakona, e nga rire katoa;
8 F ire and hail, snow and clouds; Stormy wind, fulfilling His word;
E te kapura, e te whatu; e te hukarere, e te kohu; e te tupuhi, e mahi nei i tana kupu;
9 M ountains and all hills; Fruit trees and all cedars;
E nga maunga, e nga puke katoa; e nga rakau hua, e nga hita katoa;
10 B easts and all cattle; Creeping things and winged fowl;
E nga kirehe, e nga kararehe katoa; e nga mea ngokingoki, e nga manu whai pakau:
11 K ings of the earth and all peoples; Princes and all judges of the earth;
E nga kingi o te whenua, e nga iwi katoa; e nga rangatira, e nga kaiwhakawa katoa o te whenua:
12 B oth young men and virgins; Old men and children.
E nga taitama, e nga taitamahine; e nga koroheke ratou ko nga tamariki:
13 L et them praise the name of the Lord, For His name alone is exalted; His glory is above earth and heaven.
Kia whakamoemititia e ratou te ingoa o Ihowa: nona anake hoki te ingoa e nui ana; kei runga ake i te whenua, i te rangi, tona kororia.
14 A nd He has lifted up a horn for His people, Praise for all His godly ones; Even for the sons of Israel, a people near to Him. Praise the Lord!
Ko ia hoki te kaiwhakaara o te haona o tana iwi; e whakamoemititia ana e ana tangata tapu katoa; e nga tama a Iharaira, e te iwi e tata ana ki a ia. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa.
