| 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!
