1 Praise ye Jehovah.

Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens:

Praise him in the heights.

2 Praise ye him, all his angels:

Praise ye him, all his host.

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 are above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah;

For he commanded, and they were created.

6 He hath also established them for ever and ever:

He hath made a decree which shall not pass away.

7 Praise Jehovah from the earth,

Ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapor;

Stormy wind, fulfilling his word;

9 Mountains and all hills;

Fruitful trees and all cedars;

10 Beasts and all cattle;

Creeping things and flying birds;

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples;

Princes and all judges of the earth;

12 Both young men and virgins;

Old men and children:

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah;

For his name alone is exalted;

His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
