Psalm 148

¹Hallelujah! Praise the Lord from the heavens; *praise him in the heights.

²Praise him, all you angels of his; *praise him, all his host.

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

⁴Praise him, heaven of heavens, *and you waters above the heavens.

⁵Let them praise the Name of the Lord; *for he commanded, and they were created.

⁶He made them stand fast for ever and ever; *he gave them a law which shall not pass away.

⁷Praise the Lord from the earth, *you sea-monsters and all deeps;

⁸Fire and hail, snow and fog, *tempestuous wind, doing his will;

⁹Mountains and all hills, *fruit trees and all cedars;

¹⁰Wild beasts and all cattle, *creeping things and wingèd birds;

¹¹Kings of the earth and all peoples, *princes and all rulers of the world;

¹²Young men and maidens, *old and young together.

¹³Let them praise the Name of the Lord, *for his Name only is exalted, his splendor is over earth and heaven.

¹⁴He has raised up strength for his people and praise for all his loyal servants, *the children of Israel, a people who are near him. Hallelujah!
