Psalms 148

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

Praise ye the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!

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

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

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

Praise ye him, sun and moon! Praise him, all ye stars of light!

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

Praise him, ye heavens of heavens! 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; He hath given them a law, and they transgress it not.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth, you 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 vapor; Thou tempest, that fulfillest his word!

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

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

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

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

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

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 the heavens.

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.

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!
