Psalms 148

1 Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggaeus and Zacharias. Praise you the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the highest.

הללו-יה הללו את-יהוה מן-השמים הללוהו במרומים

2 Praise you him, all his angels: praise you him, all his hosts.

הללוהו כל-מלאכיו הללוהו כל-צבאו

3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all you stars and light.

הללוהו שמש וירח הללוהו כל-כוכבי אור

4 Praise him, you heavens of heavens, and the water that is above the heavens.

הללוהו שמי השמים והמים אשר מעל השמים

5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.

יהללו את-שם יהוה כי הוא צוה ונבראו

6 He has established them for ever, even for ever and ever: he has made an ordinance, and it shall not pass away.

ויעמידם לעד לעולם חק-נתן ולא יעבור

7 Praise the Lord from the earth, you serpents, and all deeps.

הללו את-יהוה מן-הארץ-- תנינים וכל-תהמות

8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy wind; the things that perform his word.

אש וברד שלג וקיטור רוח סערה עשה דברו

9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

ההרים וכל-גבעות עץ פרי וכל-ארזים

10 wild beasts, and all cattle; reptiles, and winged birds:

החיה וכל-בהמה רמש וצפור כנף

11 kings of the earth, and all peoples; princes, and all judges of the earth:

מלכי-ארץ וכל-לאמים שרים וכל-שפטי ארץ

12 young men and virgins, old men with youths:

בחורים וגם-בתולות זקנים עם-נערים

13 let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name only is exalted; his praise is above the earth and heaven,

יהללו את-שם יהוה-- כי-נשגב שמו לבדו הודו על-ארץ ושמים

14 and he shall exalt the horn of his people, [there is] a hymn for all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people who draw near to him.

וירם קרן לעמו תהלה לכל-חסידיו-- לבני ישראל עם קרבו הללו-יה
