1 Whakamoemititia a Ihowa. Whakamoemititia a Ihowa i runga i nga rangi: whakamoemititia ia i nga wahi tiketike.

2 Whakamoemititia ia, e ana anahera katoa: whakamoemititia ia, e ana mano whaioio.

3 Whakamoemititia ia, e te ra, e te marama: whakamoemititia ia, e nga whetu whakamarama katoa.

4 Whakamoemititia ia, e nga rangi o nga rangi, e nga wai hoki o runga atu i nga rangi.

5 Kia whakamoemititia e ratou te ingoa o Ihowa: nana hoki i whakahau, a kua hanga ratou.

6 Nana hoki aua mea i whakapumau ake ake: i whakatakotoria e ia he tikanga e kore e taka.

7 Whakamoemititia a Ihowa, i runga i te whenua, e nga tarakona, e nga rire katoa;

8 E te kapura, e te whatu; e te hukarere, e te kohu; e te tupuhi, e mahi nei i tana kupu;

9 E nga maunga, e nga puke katoa; e nga rakau hua, e nga hita katoa;

10 E nga kirehe, e nga kararehe katoa; e nga mea ngokingoki, e nga manu whai pakau:

11 E nga kingi o te whenua, e nga iwi katoa; e nga rangatira, e nga kaiwhakawa katoa o te whenua:

12 E nga taitama, e nga taitamahine; e nga koroheke ratou ko nga tamariki:

13 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 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.

1 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens, Praise ye Him in high places.

2 Praise ye Him, all His messengers, Praise ye Him, all His hosts.

3 Praise ye Him, sun and moon, Praise ye Him, all stars of light.

4 Praise ye Him, heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens.

5 They do praise the name of Jehovah, For He commanded, and they were created.

6 And He establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.

7 Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, Whirlwind doing His word;

9 The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,

10 The wild beast, and all cattle, Creeping thing, and winged bird,

11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,

12 Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,

13 They praise the name of Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [is] above earth and heavens.

14 And He exalteth the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, a people near Him. Praise ye Jah!
