1 ¶ Praise1 ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
|
|
2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
|
|
3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
|
|
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
|
|
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.
|
|
6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
|
|
7 ¶ Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
|
|
8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
|
|
9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
|
|
10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying2 fowl:
|
|
11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
|
|
12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
|
|
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent;3 his glory is above the earth and heaven.
|
|
14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
