Psalm 148
Alleluia, a Psalm of Aggaeus and Zacharias.
Praise the Lord. O praise the Lord of heaven; praise him in the heights.
Praise him, all you angels of his; praise him, all his host.
Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all you stars of light.
Praise him, all you highest heavens, and you waters that are above the heavens.
Let them praise the Name of the Lord, for he spoke the word, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
He has made them stand fast for ever and ever; he has given them a law which shall not be broken.
Praise the Lord upon earth, you sea monsters and all deeps;
Fire and hail, snow and fog, wind and storm, fulfilling his word;
Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars;
Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and birds of the air;
Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the world;
Young men and maidens, old men and children together.
Let them praise the Name of the Lord, for his Name only is excellent, and his praise above heaven and earth.
He shall exalt the horn of his people; all his faithful shall praise him, the children of Israel, the people who are near him. Praise the Lord.
