Praise ye him, all his agents. Praise ye him, all his host.

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

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

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

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

5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:

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

6 And he established them for ever and ever; he made [for them] a statute which shall not pass.

He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which shall not pass away.

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

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

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;

9 Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars;

mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,

10 Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;

beasts and all cattle, creeping things and flying birds,

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;

kings of the earth and all peoples, rulers and all judges of the earth,

12 Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, —

both young men and virgins, old men and sons.

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.

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

14 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. Hallelujah!

And he has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his sanctified, even of the sons of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye Jehovah.
