Psalms 148 / 150
- 1
(Praise the Name of the Lord)
Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord from the heavens;
praise him in the heights!
- 2
Praise him, all his angels;
praise him, all his hosts!
- 3
Praise him, sun and moon,
praise him, all you shining stars!
- 4
Praise him, you highest heavens,
and you waters above the heavens!
- 5
Let them praise the name of the Lord!
For he commanded and they were created.
- 6
And he established them forever and ever;
he gave a decree, and it shall not pass away.
- 7
Praise the Lord from the earth,
you great sea creatures and all deeps,
- 8
fire and hail, snow and mist,
stormy wind fulfilling his word!
- 9
Mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars!
- 10
Beasts and all livestock,
creeping things and flying birds!
- 11
Kings of the earth and all peoples,
princes and all rulers of the earth!
- 12
Young men and maidens together,
old men and children!
- 13
Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for his name alone is exalted;
his majesty is above earth and heaven.
- 14
He has raised up a horn for his people,
praise for all his saints,
for the people of Israel who are near to him.
Praise the Lord!
