[1] Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens; Praise Him in the heights! [2] Praise Him, all His angels; Praise Him, all His hosts (armies)! [3] Praise Him, sun and moon: Praise Him, all stars of light! [4] Praise Him, highest heavens, And the waters above the heavens! [5] Let them praise the name of the LORD, For He commanded and they were created. [6] He has also established them forever and ever; He has made a decree which shall not pass away. [7] Praise the LORD from the earth, Sea monsters and all deeps; [8] Lightning and hail, snow and fog; Stormy wind, fulfilling His orders; [9] Mountains and all hills; Fruitful trees and all cedars; [10] Beasts and all cattle; Creeping things and winged birds; [11] Kings of the earth and all people; Princes and all judges of the earth; [12] Both young men and virgins; Old men and children. [13] Let them praise the name of the LORD, For His name alone is exalted and supreme; His glory and majesty are above earth and heaven. [14] He has lifted up a horn for His people [giving them strength, prosperity, dignity, and preeminence], Praise for all His godly ones; For the people of Israel, a people near to Him. Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!)
