Psalms 148

1 Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies.

Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens: Praise him in the heights.

2 Give praise to him, all you his angels: give praise to him, all his armies.

Praise ye him, all his angels: Praise ye him, all his host.

3 Give praise to him, you sun and moon: give praise to him, all you stars of light.

Praise ye him, sun and moon: Praise him, all ye stars of light.

4 Give praise to him, you highest heavens, and you waters which are over the heavens.

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

5 Let them give praise to the name of the Lord: for he gave the order, and they were made.

Let them praise the name of Jehovah; For he commanded, and they were created.

6 He has put them in their places for ever; he has given them their limits which may not be broken.

He hath also established them for ever and ever: He hath made a decree which shall not pass away.

7 Give praise to the Lord from the earth, you great sea-beasts, and deep places:

Praise Jehovah from the earth, Ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;

8 Fire and rain of ice, snow and mists; storm-wind, doing his word:

Fire and hail, snow and vapor; Stormy wind, fulfilling his word;

9 Mountains and all hills; fruit-trees and all trees of the mountains:

Mountains and all hills; Fruitful trees and all cedars;

10 Beasts and all cattle; insects and winged birds:

Beasts and all cattle; Creeping things and flying birds;

11 Kings of the earth, and all peoples; rulers and all judges of the earth:

Kings of the earth and all peoples; Princes and all judges of the earth;

12 Young men and virgins; old men and children:

Both young men and virgins; Old men and children:

13 Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven.

Let them praise the name of Jehovah; For his name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and the heavens.

14 He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.

And 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. Praise ye Jehovah.
