Psalms 148

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

Praise ye the LORD! Praise the LORD 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 him, all ye his angels! Praise him, all ye his hosts!

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! 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 the LORD; 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; He hath given them a law, and they transgress it not.

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

Praise the LORD 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; Thou tempest, that fulfillest his word!

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

Ye mountains, and all hills! Fruit-trees, and all cedars!

10 Beasts and all cattle; insects and winged birds:

Ye wild beasts, and all cattle! Ye creeping things, and winged birds!

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

Ye kings, and all peoples, Princes, and all judges of the earth!

12 Young men and virgins; old men and children:

Young men and maidens, 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 the LORD! 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.

He exalteth the horn of his people, The glory of all his godly ones, Of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye the LORD!
