- 1Praise Yah! Praise the Lord from the heavens! Praise him in the heights!
- 2Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army!
- 3Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars!
- 4Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens.
- 5Let them praise the Lord’s name, For he commanded, and they were created.
- 6He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away.
- 7Praise the Lord from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths!
- 8Lightning and hail, snow and clouds; stormy wind, fulfilling his word;
- 9mountains and all hills; fruit trees and all cedars;
- 10wild animals and all livestock; small creatures and flying birds;
- 11kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth;
- 12both young men and maidens; old men and children:
- 13let them praise the Lord’s name, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
- 14He has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise Yah!
