Psalms 148

1 Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.

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 ye him, O 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 let all the waters that are above the heavens

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

5 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 hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, 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 dragons, and all ye deeps:

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

8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds which fulfill 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 Beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls:

Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;

11 Kings of the earth and all people: 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 maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:

Both young men and maidens, old men and children;

13 For his name alone is exalted.

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

14 The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia.

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.
