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

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

Praise him, sun and moon. Praise him, all you shining stars.

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

Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens.

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

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

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

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

Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths.

12 Yong men and maidens, also olde men and children:

13 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.

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

14 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.

He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his faithful ones; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise the LORD.
