1 | Praise Yah! Praise Yahweh from the heavens! Praise him in the heights! |
2 | Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all his army! |
3 | Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you shining stars! |
4 | Praise him, you heavens of heavens, You waters that are above the heavens. |
5 | Let them praise the name of Yahweh, For he commanded, and they were created. |
6 | He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which will not pass away. |
7 | Praise Yahweh from the earth, you great sea creatures, and all depths! |
8 | Lightning and hail, snow and clouds; stormy wind, fulfilling his word; |
9 | mountains and all hills; fruit trees and all cedars; |
10 | wild animals and all livestock; small creatures and flying birds; |
11 | kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth; |
12 | both young men and maidens; old men and children: |
13 | let them praise the name of Yahweh, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens. |
14 | He 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! Psalm 149 |
