[[Praise ye the Lord.]]
[1] Praise ye the Lord from the heaven: praise ye him in the high places.
[2] Praise ye him, all ye his angels: praise him, all his army.
[3] Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise ye him all bright stars.
[4] Praise ye him, heavens of heavens, and waters, that be above the heavens.
[5] Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
[6] And he hath established them forever and ever: he hath made an ordinance, which shall not pass.
[7] Praise ye the Lord from the earth, ye dragons and all depths:
[8] Fire and hail, snow and vapors, stormy wind, which execute his word:
[9] Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars:
[10] Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and feathered fouls:
[11] Kings of the earth and all people, princes and all judges of the world:
[12] Young men and maidens, also old men and children:
[13] Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be exalted, and his praise above the earth and the heavens.
[14] For he hath exalted the horn of his people, which is a praise for all his saints, even for the children of Israel, a people that is near unto him. Praise ye the Lord.
