Psalm 148

1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his host.

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

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass away.

7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour; stormy wind, fulfilling his word:

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

10 Beasts and all cattle; creeping things and flying fowl:

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth:

12 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 glory is above the earth and heaven.

14 And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
