< Psalms 148 >
1 Praise YAH! Praise YHWH from the heavens, Praise Him in high places.
Praise you the LORD. Praise you the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Praise Him, all His messengers, Praise Him, all His hosts.
Praise you him, all his angels: praise you him, all his hosts.
3 Praise Him, sun and moon, Praise Him, all stars of light.
Praise you him, sun and moon: praise him, all you stars of light.
4 Praise Him, heavens of heavens, And you waters that are above the heavens.
Praise him, you heavens of heavens, and you waters that be above the heavens.
5 They praise the Name of YHWH, 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 establishes them forever and for all time, He gave a statute, and they do not pass over.
He has also established them for ever and ever: he has made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Praise YHWH from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
Praise the LORD from the earth, you dragons, and all deeps:
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapor, Whirlwind doing His word;
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapors; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 The wild beast, and all livestock, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 They praise the Name of YHWH, For His Name alone has been set on high, His splendor [is] above earth and 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 exalts the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, A people near Him. Praise YAH!
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.
