Fire, and hail, snow, and vapor; thou storm-wind that fulfillest his word;

Young men and also virgins; old men, together with boys: —

Let them praise the name of the Lord; for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above earth and heaven.

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.
