Psalms 148
1 Hallelujah! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the highest places.
Praise you the LORD. Praise you the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His heavenly hosts.
Praise you him, all his angels: praise you him, all his hosts.
3 Praise Him, O sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars.
Praise you him, sun and moon: praise him, all you stars of light.
4 Praise Him, O highest heavens, and you waters above the skies.
Praise him, you heavens of heavens, and you waters that be above the heavens.
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He gave the command and they were created.
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 He established them forever and ever; He issued a decree that will never pass away.
He has also established them for ever and ever: he has made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, all great sea creatures and ocean depths,
Praise the LORD from the earth, you dragons, and all deeps:
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, powerful wind fulfilling His word,
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapors; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 wild animals and all cattle, crawling creatures and flying birds,
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the earth,
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 young men and maidens, old and young together.
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 He has raised up a horn for His people, the praise of all His saints, of Israel, a people near to Him. Hallelujah!
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.
