OEBcth - Psalms - 148

148:1  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 stars of light.

148:4  Praise him, you highest heavens, and you waters above the heavens.

148:5  Let them praise the name of the Lord, for at his command they were made.

148:6  And he fixed them for ever and ever by a law which they dare not transgress.

148:7  Praise the Lord from the earth: you depths, with your monsters, all.

148:8  Fire, hail, snow and ice, and stormy wind doing his word.

148:9  All you mountains and hills, all you fruit trees and cedars,

148:10  all you wild beasts and tame, creeping things, birds on the wing.

148:11  All you kings and nations of earth; all you princes and judges of earth:

148:12  young men and maidens together, old men and children together.

148:13  Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted. Over heaven and earth is his glory.

148:14  He has lifted his people to honour. Wherefore this chorus of praise from his saints, from Israel, the people who stand in his fellowship. Hallelujah.
