PSALM 148
First Version
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1Praise God. From heavens praise the Lord,
in heights praise to him be.
2All ye his angels, praise ye him;
his hosts all, praise him ye.
3O praise ye him, both sun and moon,
praise him, all stars of light.
4Ye heav'ns of heav'ns him praise, and floods
above the heavens' height.
5Let all the creatures praise the name
of our almighty Lord:
For he commanded, and they were
created by his word.
6He also, for all times to come,
hath them establish'd sure;
He hath appointed them a law,
which ever shall endure.
7Praise ye JEHOVAH from the earth,
dragons, and ev'ry deep:
8Fire, hail, snow, vapour, stormy wind,
his word that fully keep.
9All hills and mountains, fruitful trees,
and all ye cedars high:
10Beasts, and all cattle, creeping things,
and all ye birds that fly.
11Kings of the earth, all nations,
princes, earth's judges all:
12Both young men, yea, and maidens too,
old men, and children small.
13Let them God's name praise; for his name
alone is excellent:
His glory reacheth far above
the earth and firmament.
14His people's horn, the praise of all
his saints, exalteth he;
Ev'n Isr'el's seed, a people near
to him. The Lord praise ye.

Psalm 148
1Hallelujah!
Praise the Lord from the heavens.
Praise him in the heights above.
2Praise him, all his angels.
Praise him, his entire heavenly army.
3Praise him, sun and moon.
Praise him, all shining stars.
4Praise him, you highest heaven
and the water above the sky.
5Let them praise the name of the Lord
because they were created by his command.
6He set them in their places forever and ever.
He made it a law that no one can break.
7Praise the Lord from the earth.
Praise him, large sea creatures and all the ocean depths,
8lightning and hail,
snow and fog,
strong winds that obey his commands,
9mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedar trees,
10wild animals and all domestic animals,
crawling animals and birds,
11kings of the earth and all its people,
officials and all judges on the earth,
12young men and women,
old and young together.
13Let them praise the name of the Lord
because his name is high above all others.
His glory is above heaven and earth.
14He has given his people a strong leader,#148:14 Or “given his people strength.”
someone praiseworthy for his faithful ones,
for the people of Israel, the people who are close to him.
Hallelujah!
