Psalms 148

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

10Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:2

11Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

12Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

13Let them praise the name of Yhwh: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.3

14He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah.
