Psalms 148

1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord from the heavens. Praise him on the heights.

Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heauen: prayse ye him in the high places.

2 Praise him, all his Angels. Praise him, all his hosts.

Prayse ye him, all ye his Angels: praise him, all his armie.

3 Praise him, sun and moon. Praise him, all stars and light.

Prayse ye him, sunne and moone: prayse ye him all bright starres.

4 Praise him, heavens of the heavens. And let all the waters that are above the heavens

Prayse ye him, heauens of heauens, and waters, that be aboue the heauens.

5 praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they became. He commanded, and they were created.

Let them prayse the Name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.

6 He has stationed them in eternity, and for age after age. He has established a precept, and it will not pass away.

And he hath established them for euer and euer: he hath made an ordinance, which shall not passe.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth: you dragons and all deep places,

Prayse ye the Lord from the earth, ye dragons and all depths:

8 fire, hail, snow, ice, windstorms, which do his word,

Fire and hayle, snowe and vapours, stormie winde, which execute his worde:

9 mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,

Mountaines and all hils, fruitfull trees and all ceders:

10 wild beasts and all cattle, serpents and feathered flying things,

Beasts and all cattell, creeping things and fethered foules:

11 kings of the earth and all peoples, leaders and all judges of the earth,

Kings of the earth and all people, princes and all iudges of the worlde:

12 young men and virgins. Let the older men with the younger men, praise the name of the Lord.

Yong men and maidens, also olde men and children:

13 For his name alone is exalted.

Let them prayse the Name of the Lord: for his Name onely is to be exalted, and his prayse aboue the earth and the heauens.

14 Confession of him is beyond heaven and earth, and he has exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his holy ones, to the sons of Israel, to a people close to him. Alleluia.

For he hath exalted the horne of his people, which is a prayse for all his Saintes, euen for the children of Israel, a people that is neere vnto him. Prayse ye the Lord.
