Chapter 148

1

Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies.

2

Give praise to him, all you his angels: give praise to him, all his armies.

3

Give praise to him, you sun and moon: give praise to him, all you stars of light.

4

Give praise to him, you highest heavens, and you waters which are over the heavens.

5

Let them give praise to the name of the Lord: for he gave the order, and they were made.

6

He has put them in their places for ever; he has given them their limits which may not be broken.

7

Give praise to the Lord from the earth, you great sea-beasts, and deep places:

8

Fire and rain of ice, snow and mists; storm-wind, doing his word:

9

Mountains and all hills; fruit-trees and all trees of the mountains:

10

Beasts and all cattle; insects and winged birds:

11

Kings of the earth, and all peoples; rulers and all judges of the earth:

12

Young men and virgins; old men and children:

13

Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven.

14

He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.
