1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens : Praise him in the heights.

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

3 Praise ye 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 commanded, and they were created.

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

7 Praise Jehovah from the earth, Ye sea-monsters, and all deeps ;

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapor ; Stormy wind, fulfilling his word ;

9 Mountains and all hills ; Fruitful trees and all cedars ;

10 Beasts and all cattle ; Creeping things and flying birds ;

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples ; Princes and all judges of the earth ;

12 Both young men and virgins ; Old men and children :

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah ; For his name alone is exalted ; His glory 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. Praise ye Jehovah.
