PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050. PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3068 from the heavensH8064: praiseH1984 him in the heightsH4791. {Praise ye the LORD. Praise: Heb. Hallelujah, etc}
PraiseH1984 ye him, all his angelsH4397: praiseH1984 ye him, all his hostsH6635.
PraiseH1984 ye him, sunH8121 and moonH3394: praiseH1984 him, all ye starsH3556 of lightH216.
PraiseH1984 him, ye heavensH8064 of heavensH8064, and ye watersH4325 that be above the heavensH8064.
Let them praiseH1984 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068: for he commandedH6680, and they were createdH1254.
He hath also stablishedH5975 them for everH5703 and everH5769: he hath madeH5414 a decreeH2706 which shall not passH5674.
PraiseH1984 the LORDH3068 from the earthH776, ye dragonsH8577, and all deepsH8415:
FireH784, and hailH1259; snowH7950, and vapourH7008; stormyH5591 windH7307 fulfillingH6213 his wordH1697:
MountainsH2022, and all hillsH1389; fruitfulH6529 treesH6086, and all cedarsH730:
BeastsH2416, and all cattleH929; creeping thingsH7431, and flyingH3671 fowlH6833: {flying…: Heb. birds of wing}
KingsH4428 of the earthH776, and all peopleH3816; princesH8269, and all judgesH8199 of the earthH776:
Both young menH970, and maidensH1330; old menH2205, and childrenH5288:
Let them praiseH1984 the nameH8034 of the LORDH3068: for his nameH8034 alone is excellentH7682; his gloryH1935 is above the earthH776 and heavenH8064. {excellent: Heb. exalted}
He also exaltethH7311 the hornH7161 of his peopleH5971, the praiseH8416 of all his saintsH2623; even of the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, a peopleH5971 nearH7138 unto him. PraiseH1984 ye the LORDH3050.
Querverweise zu Psalm 148,7 Ps 148,7
Thou didst divideH6565 the seaH3220 by thy strengthH5797: thou brakestH7665 the headsH7218 of the dragonsH8577 in the watersH4325. {divide: Heb. break} {dragons: or, whales}
Thou brakestH7533 the headsH7218 of leviathanH3882 in pieces, and gavestH5414 him to be meatH3978 to the peopleH5971 inhabiting the wildernessH6728.
So is this greatH1419 and wideH7342+H3027 seaH3220, wherein are things creepingH7431 innumerableH4557, both smallH6996 and greatH1419 beastsH2416.
There goH1980 the shipsH591: there is that leviathanH3882, whom thou hast madeH3335 to playH7832 therein. {made: Heb. formed}
And GodH430 createdH1254 greatH1419 whalesH8577, and every livingH2416 creatureH5315 that movethH7430, which the watersH4325 brought forth abundantlyH8317, after their kindH4327, and every wingedH3671 fowlH5775 after his kindH4327: and GodH430 sawH7200 that it was goodH2896.
Canst thou draw outH4900 leviathanH3882 with an hookH2443? or his tongueH3956 with a cordH2256 which thou lettest downH8257? {leviathan: That is, a whale or a whirlepoole} {which…: Heb. which thou drownest?}
Canst thou putH7760 an hookH100 into his noseH639? or boreH5344 his jawH3895 through with a thornH2336?
Will he make manyH7235 supplicationsH8469 unto thee? will he speakH1696 softH7390 words unto thee?
Will he makeH3772 a covenantH1285 with thee? wilt thou takeH3947 him for a servantH5650 for everH5769?
Wilt thou playH7832 with him as with a birdH6833? or wilt thou bindH7194 him for thy maidensH5291?
Shall the companionsH2271 make a banquetH3739 of him? shall they partH2673 him among the merchantsH3669?
Canst thou fillH4390 his skinH5785 with barbed ironsH7905? or his headH7218 with fishH1709 spearsH6767?
LayH7760 thine handH3709 upon him, rememberH2142 the battleH4421, do no moreH3254.
Behold, the hopeH8431 of him is in vainH3576: shall not one be cast downH2904 even at the sightH4758 of him?
None is so fierceH393 that dare stir him upH5782+H5782: who then is able to standH3320 beforeH6440 me?
Who hath preventedH6923 me, that I should repayH7999 him? whatsoever is under the whole heavenH8064 is mine.
I will not concealH2790 his partsH907, nor his powerH1369+H1697, nor his comelyH2433 proportionH6187.
Who can discoverH1540 the faceH6440 of his garmentH3830? or who can comeH935 to him with his doubleH3718 bridleH7448? {with: or, within}
Who can openH6605 the doorsH1817 of his faceH6440? his teethH8127 are terribleH367 round aboutH5439.
His scalesH4043+H650 are his prideH1346, shut up togetherH5462 as with a closeH6862 sealH2368. {scales: Heb. strong pieces of shields}
OneH259 is so nearH5066 to anotherH259, that no airH7307 can comeH935 between them.
They are joinedH1692 oneH376 to anotherH251, they stick togetherH3920, that they cannot be sunderedH6504.
By his neesingsH5846 a lightH216 doth shineH1984, and his eyesH5869 are like the eyelidsH6079 of the morningH7837.
Out of his mouthH6310 goH1980 burning lampsH3940, and sparksH3590 of fireH784 leap outH4422.
Out of his nostrilsH5156 goethH3318 smokeH6227, as out of a seethingH5301 potH1731 or caldronH100.
His breathH5315 kindlethH3857 coalsH1513, and a flameH3851 goeth outH3318 of his mouthH6310.
In his neckH6677 remainethH3885 strengthH5797, and sorrowH1670 is turned into joyH1750 beforeH6440 him. {is turned into joy: Heb. rejoiceth}
The flakesH4651 of his fleshH1320 are joined togetherH1692: they are firmH3332 in themselves; they cannot be movedH4131. {flakes: Heb. fallings}
His heartH3820 is as firmH3332 as a stoneH68; yea, as hardH3332 as a pieceH6400 of the netherH8482 millstone.
When he raiseth upH7613 himself, the mightyH352 are afraidH1481: by reason of breakingsH7667 they purifyH2398 themselves.
The swordH2719 of him that layethH5381 at him cannot holdH6965: the spearH2595, the dartH4551, nor the habergeonH8302. {habergeon: or, breastplate}
He esteemethH2803 ironH1270 as strawH8401, and brassH5154 as rottenH7539 woodH6086.
The arrowH1121+H7198 cannot make him fleeH1272: slingstonesH68+H7050 are turnedH2015 with him into stubbleH7179.
DartsH8455 are countedH2803 as stubbleH7179: he laughethH7832 at the shakingH7494 of a spearH3591.
SharpH2303 stonesH2789 are under him: he spreadethH7502 sharp pointed thingsH2742 upon the mireH2916. {Sharp stones: Heb. Sharp pieces of potsherd}
He maketh the deepH4688 to boilH7570 like a potH5518: he makethH7760 the seaH3220 like a pot of ointmentH4841.
He maketh a pathH5410 to shineH215 afterH310 him; one would thinkH2803 the deepH8415 to be hoaryH7872.
Upon earthH6083 there is not his likeH4915, who is madeH6213 withoutH1097 fearH2844. {is made without fear: or, behave themselves without fear}
He beholdethH7200 all highH1364 things: he is a kingH4428 over all the childrenH1121 of prideH7830.
In that dayH3117 the LORDH3068 with his soreH7186 and greatH1419 and strongH2389 swordH2719 shall punishH6485 leviathanH3882 the piercingH1281 serpentH5175, even leviathanH3882 that crookedH6129 serpentH5175; and he shall slayH2026 the dragonH8577 that is in the seaH3220. {piercing: or, crossing like a bar}
The beastH2416 of the fieldH7704 shall honourH3513 me, the dragonsH8577 and the owlsH1323+H3284: because I giveH5414 watersH4325 in the wildernessH4057, and riversH5104 in the desertH3452, to give drinkH8248 to my peopleH5971, my chosenH972. {owls: or, ostriches: Heb. daughters of the owl}
