Psalms 148
1 Praise the Lord! Praise the Lord from heaven; praise him in the heights above!
| הַלְלוּ ־ יָהּ ׀ הַֽלְלוּ אֶת־יְהֹוָה מִן־הַשָּׁמַיִם הַֽלְלוּהוּ בַּמְּרוֹמִֽים׃ |
2 Praise him, all his angels; praise him, all his heavenly armies!
| הַֽלְלוּהוּ כׇל־מַלְאָכָיו הַלְלוּהוּ כׇּל־צְבָאָֽו׃ |
3 Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
| הַֽלְלוּהוּ שֶׁמֶשׁ וְיָרֵחַ הַֽלְלוּהוּ כׇּל־כּוֹכְבֵי אֽוֹר׃ |
4 Praise him, highest heavens, and the waters above the heavens!
| הַֽלְלוּהוּ שְׁמֵי הַשָּׁמָיִם וְהַמַּיִם אֲשֶׁר ׀ מֵעַל הַשָּׁמָֽיִם׃ |
5 Let them all praise the Lord and his nature, for he gave the order and they were created.
| יְֽהַלְלוּ אֶת־שֵׁם יְהֹוָה כִּי הוּא צִוָּה וְנִבְרָֽאוּ׃ |
6 He placed them in their positions forever and ever; he established a law that will never end.
| וַיַּעֲמִידֵם לָעַד לְעוֹלָם חׇק־נָתַן וְלֹא יַעֲבֽוֹר׃ |
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, and creatures from all the depths of the seas,
| הַֽלְלוּ אֶת־יְהֹוָה מִן־הָאָרֶץ תַּנִּינִים וְכׇל־תְּהֹמֽוֹת׃ |
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, and stormy wind—everything that does as he commands.
| אֵשׁ וּבָרָד שֶׁלֶג וְקִיטוֹר רוּחַ סְעָרָה עֹשָׂה דְבָרֽוֹ׃ |
9 Mountains and all the hills, fruit trees and all the trees of the forest,
| הֶהָרִים וְכׇל־גְּבָעוֹת עֵץ פְּרִי וְכׇל־אֲרָזִֽים׃ |
10 wild animals and all livestock, crawling animals and wild birds,
| הַחַיָּה וְכׇל־בְּהֵמָה רֶמֶשׂ וְצִפּוֹר כָּנָֽף׃ |
11 earthly kings and all peoples, leaders and rulers of the world,
| מַלְכֵי־אֶרֶץ וְכׇל־לְאֻמִּים שָׂרִים וְכׇל־שֹׁפְטֵי אָֽרֶץ׃ |
12 young men and women, old people and children—
| בַּחוּרִים וְגַם־בְּתוּלוֹת זְקֵנִים עִם־נְעָרִֽים׃ |
13 Let them all praise the Lord, for his reputation is unequalled; his glory is above anything on earth or in heaven.
| יְהַלְלוּ ׀ אֶת־שֵׁם יְהֹוָה כִּֽי־נִשְׂגָּב שְׁמוֹ לְבַדּוֹ הוֹדוֹ עַל־אֶרֶץ וְשָׁמָֽיִם׃ |
14 He has given his people a source of strength, bringing praise to his faithful followers, the people of Israel who are dear to him. Praise the Lord!
| וַיָּרֶם קֶרֶן ׀ לְעַמּוֹ תְּהִלָּה לְֽכׇל־חֲסִידָיו לִבְנֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל עַם קְרֹבוֹ הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃ |
