Psalm 148 (NIV)
[148:1] Praise the LORD. Praise the LORD from the heavens, praise him in the heights above.
[2] Praise him, all his angels, praise him, all his heavenly hosts.
[3] Praise him, sun and moon, praise him, all you shining stars.
[4] Praise him, you highest heavens and you waters above the skies.
[5] Let them praise the name of the LORD, for he commanded and they were created.
[6] He set them in place for ever and ever; he gave a decree that will never pass away.
[7] Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures and all ocean depths,
[8] lightning and hail, snow and clouds, stormy winds that do his bidding,
[9] you mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
[10] wild animals and all cattle, small creatures and flying birds,
[11] kings of the earth and all nations, you princes and all rulers on earth,
[12] young men and maidens, old men and children.
[13] Let them praise the name of the LORD, for his name alone is exalted; his splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
[14] He has raised up for his people a horn, the praise of all his saints, of Israel, the people close to his heart. Praise the LORD.
