Psalms 148

1 Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the highest.

Hallelujah. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.

2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

Praise ye Him, all His angels; praise ye Him, all His hosts.

3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars and light.

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

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and the water that is above the heavens.

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

5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.

Let them praise the name of the LORD; for He commanded, and they were created.

6 He has established them for ever, even for ever and ever: he has made an ordinance, and it shall not pass away.

He hath also established them for ever and ever; He hath made a decree which shall not be transgressed.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye serpents, and all deeps.

Praise the LORD from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;

8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy wind; the things that perform his word.

Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling His word;

9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars;

10 wild beasts, and all cattle; reptiles, and winged birds:

Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;

11 kings of the earth, and all peoples; princes, 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 with youths:

Both young men and maidens, old men and children;

13 let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name only is exalted; his praise is above the earth and heaven,

Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and heaven.

14 and he shall exalt the horn of his people, [there is] a hymn for all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people who draw near to him.

And He hath lifted up a horn for His people, a praise for all His saints, even for the children of Israel, a people near unto Him. Hallelujah.
