< Psalms 148 >
1 Hallelujah. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
Praise YAH! Praise YHWH from the heavens, Praise Him in high places.
2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
Praise Him, all His messengers, Praise Him, all His hosts.
3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
Praise Him, sun and moon, Praise Him, all stars of light.
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
Praise Him, heavens of heavens, And you waters that are above the heavens.
5 Let them praise the name of the Lord; for he commanded and they were created.
They praise the Name of YHWH, For He commanded, and they were created.
6 And he established them for ever and to eternity: he gave a decree which none shall transgress.
And He establishes them forever and for all time, He gave a statute, and they do not pass over.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;
Praise YHWH from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
8 Fire, and hail, snow, and vapor; thou storm-wind that fulfillest his word;
Fire and hail, snow and vapor, Whirlwind doing His word;
9 Ye mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars;
The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
10 Ye beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and winged birds;
The wild beast, and all livestock, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
11 Ye kings of the earth, and all nations; ye princes, and all judges of the earth;
Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
12 Young men and also virgins; old men, together with boys: —
Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
13 Let them praise the name of the Lord; for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above earth and heaven.
They praise the Name of YHWH, For His Name alone has been set on high, His splendor [is] above earth and heavens.
14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, a praise unto all his pious servants, [even] unto the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah.
And He exalts the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, A people near Him. Praise YAH!
