1Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from the heavens! Praise him from the skies! | 1Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights. |
2Praise him, all his angels! Praise him, all the armies of heaven! | 2Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts. |
3Praise him, sun and moon! Praise him, all you twinkling stars! | 3Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light. |
4Praise him, skies above! Praise him, vapors high above the clouds! | 4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens. |
5Let every created thing give praise to the LORD, for he issued his command, and they came into being. | 5Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created. |
6He set them in place forever and ever. His decree will never be revoked. | 6He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass. |
7Praise the LORD from the earth, you creatures of the ocean depths, | 7Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps: |
8fire and hail, snow and clouds, wind and weather that obey him, | 8Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word: |
9mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars, | 9Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars: |
10wild animals and all livestock, small scurrying animals and birds, | 10Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl: |
11kings of the earth and all people, rulers and judges of the earth, | 11Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth: |
12young men and young women, old men and children. | 12Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children: |
13Let them all praise the name of the LORD. For his name is very great; his glory towers over the earth and heaven! | 13Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven. |
14He has made his people strong, honoring his faithful ones— the people of Israel who are close to him. Praise the LORD! | 14He 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. |
