Chapter 148

  Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights.  

-

  Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts.  

-

  Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.  

-

  Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.  

-

  Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:  

-

  And he established them for ever and ever; he made [for them] a statute which shall not pass.  

-

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

-

  Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;  

-

  Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars;  

-

  Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;  

-

  Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;  

-

  Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, --  

-

  Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.  

-

  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!
