| Chapter 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 hosts. |
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. |
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 people; 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 excellent; his glory [is] above the earth and heaven. |
14 | 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 the LORD. |
