Psalms 148
1 Alleluia. Praise the Lord from the heavens. Praise him on the heights.
Praise ye YHWH. Praise ye YHWH from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
2 Praise him, all his Angels. Praise him, all his hosts.
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
3 Praise him, sun and moon. Praise him, all stars and light.
Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
4 Praise him, heavens of the heavens. And let all the waters that are above the heavens
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
5 praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they became. He commanded, and they were created.
Let them praise the name of YHWH: for he commanded, and they were created.
6 He has stationed them in eternity, and for age after age. He has established a precept, and it will not pass away.
He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth: you dragons and all deep places,
Praise YHWH from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
8 fire, hail, snow, ice, windstorms, which do his word,
Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
9 mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
10 wild beasts and all cattle, serpents and feathered flying things,
Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, leaders and all judges of the earth,
Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
12 young men and virgins. Let the older men with the younger men, praise the name of the Lord.
Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
13 For his name alone is exalted.
Let them praise the name of YHWH: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
14 Confession of him is beyond heaven and earth, and he has exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his holy ones, to the sons of Israel, to a people close to him. Alleluia.
He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye YHWH.
