< Psalms 148 >

1 Praise YAH! Praise YHWH from the heavens, Praise Him in high places.
Praise ye Yah, Praise Yahweh, out of the heavens, Praise him, in the heights;
2 Praise Him, all His messengers, Praise Him, all His hosts.
Praise him, all his messengers, Praise him, all his host;
3 Praise Him, sun and moon, Praise Him, all stars of light.
Praise him, sun and moon, Praise him, all ye stars of light;
4 Praise Him, heavens of heavens, And you waters that are above the heavens.
Praise him, O ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens;
5 They praise the Name of YHWH, For He commanded, and they were created.
Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, 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.
So caused he them to stand perpetually—age-abidingly, A decree, hath he given, and it passeth not beyond.
7 Praise YHWH from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
Praise Yahweh, out of the earth, sea monsters, and all resounding deeps;
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapor, Whirlwind doing His word;
Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind, fulfilling his word;
9 The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
Ye mountains, and all hills, fruit trees, and all cedars;
10 The wild beast, and all livestock, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
Thou wild-beast, and all ye cattle, crawling creature, and bird of wing;
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
Kings of earth, and all peoples, Rulers, and all judges of earth;
12 Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
Young men, yea even virgins, elders, 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 Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.
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!
Therefore hath he exalted a horn for his people, a praise for all his men of lovingkindness, for the sons of Israel—a people near him, Praise ye Yah!
