1Praise ye the Lord.
Praise ye the Lord from the heavens:
Praise him in the heights.

2Praise ye him, all his angels:
Praise ye him, all his hosts.

3Praise ye him, sun and moon:
Praise him, all ye stars of light.

4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens,
And ye waters that be above the heavens.

5Let them praise the name of the Lord:
For he commanded, and they were created.

6He hath also stablished them for ever and ever:
He hath made a decree which shall not pass.

7Praise the Lord from the earth,
Ye dragons, and all deeps:

8Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour;
Stormy wind fulfilling his word:

9Mountains, and all hills;
Fruitful trees, and all cedars:

10Beasts, and all cattle;
Creeping things, and flying fowl:

11Kings of the earth, and all people;
Princes, and all judges of the earth:

12Both young men, and maidens;
Old men, and children:

13Let them praise the name of the Lord:
For his name alone is excellent;
His glory is above the earth and heaven.

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.
