Psalm 148


1 Alleluia, a Psalm of Aggeus and Zacharias.

Praise ye the Lord from the heavens:

praise him in the highest.

2 Praise ye him, all his angels:

praise ye him, all his hosts.

3 Praise him, sun and moon:

praise him, all ye stars and light.

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens,

and the water that is above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the name of the Lord:

for he spake, and they were made;

he commanded, and they were created.

6 He hath established them for ever, even for ever and ever:

he hath made an ordinance, and it shall not pass away.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth,

ye serpents, and all deeps.

8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy wind;

the things that perform his word.

9 Mountains, and all hills;

fruitful trees, and all cedars:

10 wild beasts, and all cattle;

reptiles, and winged birds:

11 kings of the earth, and all peoples;

princes, and all judges of the earth:

12 young men and virgins,

old men with youths:

13 let them praise the name of the Lord:

for his name only is exalted;

his praise is above the earth and heaven,

14 and he shall exalt the horn of his people,

[1]there is a hymn for all his saints,

even of the children of Israel, a people who draw near to him.
