< Psalms 148 >
1 Praise ye Jah! Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens, Praise ye Him in high places.
Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Praise ye Him, all His messengers, Praise ye Him, all His hosts.
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Praise ye Him, sun and moon, Praise ye Him, all stars of light.
Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Praise ye Him, heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 They do praise the name of Jehovah, 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 establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.
He hath also established them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, Whirlwind doing His word;
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; 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 cattle, 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 Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [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 exalteth the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, a people near Him. Praise ye Jah!
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye the LORD.
