Psalms 148

¹Alleluia. Praise the Lord from the heavens. Praise him on the heights

²Praise him, all his Angels. Praise him, all his hosts

³Praise him, sun and moon. Praise him, all stars and light

⁴Praise him, heavens of the heavens. And let all the waters that are above the heaven

⁵praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they became. He commanded, and they were created

⁶He has stationed them in eternity, and for age after age. He has established a precept, and it will not pass away

⁷Praise the Lord from the earth: you dragons and all deep places

⁸fire, hail, snow, ice, windstorms, which do his word

⁹mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars

¹⁰wild beasts and all cattle, serpents and feathered flying things

¹¹kings of the earth and all peoples, leaders and all judges of the earth

¹²young men and virgins. Let the older men with the younger men, praise the name of the Lord

¹³For his name alone is exalted

¹⁴Confession 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
