Praise you him, all his angels: praise you him, all his hosts.
3 Praise 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, you heavens of heavens, and you waters that be 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 the LORD: 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 for ever and ever: he has made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
Praise the LORD from the earth, you dragons, and all deeps:
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapors; 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 fowl:
11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, —
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
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 the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
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!
He also exalts the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise you the LORD.
