148:1  O praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.

148:2  Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His hosts.

148:3  Praise Him, sun and moon; praise Him, all you stars of light.

148:4  Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, and waters that are above the heavens.

148:5  Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He commanded and they were created.

148:6  He has also established them forever and ever; He has made a decree which shall not pass away.

148:7  Let praise be to the LORD from the earth, you sea monsters, and all the depths;

148:8  Fire and hail, snow and vapor, stormy winds fulfilling His word,

148:9  Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars,

148:10  Beasts and all livestock, creeping things and flying birds,

148:11  Kings of the earth and all people, princes and all judges of the earth,

148:12  Both young men and maidens, old men and children;

148:13  Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His glory is above the earth and the heavens.

148:14  And He has also lifted up a horn for His people, praise for all His saints, even of the children of Israel, a people near to Him. O praise the LORD!
