| Chapter 148 |
1 | Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights. |
2 | Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts. |
3 | Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light. |
4 | Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens. |
5 | Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created: |
6 | And he established them for ever and ever; he made [for them] a statute which shall not pass. |
7 | Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps; |
8 | Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word; |
9 | Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars; |
10 | Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl; |
11 | Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth; |
12 | Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, -- |
13 | Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens. |
14 | And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah! |
