[1] Hallelujah! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the highest places. [2] Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His heavenly hosts. [3] Praise Him, O sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars. [4] Praise Him, O highest heavens, and you waters above the skies. [5] Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He gave the command and they were created. [6] He established them forever and ever; He issued a decree that will never pass away. [7] Praise the LORD from the earth, all great sea creatures and ocean depths, [8] lightning and hail, snow and clouds, powerful wind fulfilling His word, [9] mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars, [10] wild animals and all cattle, crawling creatures and flying birds, [11] kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the earth, [12] young men and maidens, old and young together. [13] Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and the heavens. [14] He has raised up a horn for His people, the praise of all His saints, of Israel, a people near to Him. Hallelujah!
