Psalm 148:1-14

¹ Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD from heaven! Praise God on the heights! ² Praise God, all of you who are his messengers! Praise God, all of you who comprise his heavenly forces! ³ Sun and moon, praise God! All of you bright stars, praise God! ⁴ You highest heaven, praise God! Do the same, you waters that are above the sky! ⁵ Let all of these praise the LORD’s name because God gave the command and they were created! ⁶ God set them in place always and forever. God made a law that will not be broken. ⁷ Praise the LORD from the earth, you sea monsters and all you ocean depths! ⁸ Do the same, fire and hail, snow and smoke, stormy wind that does what God says! ⁹ Do the same, you mountains, every single hill, fruit trees, and every single cedar! ¹⁰ Do the same, you animals—wild or tame you creatures that creep along and you birds that fly! ¹¹ Do the same, you kings of the earth and every single person, you princes and every single ruler on earth! ¹² Do the same, you young men—young women too! you who are old together with you who are young! ¹³ Let all of these praise the LORD’s name because only God’s name is high over all. Only God’s majesty is over earth and heaven. ¹⁴ God raised the strength of his people, the praise of all his faithful ones that’s the Israelites, the people who are close to him. Praise the LORD!
