Praise to the Lord from Creation
1Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord from the heavens;
Praise Him in the heights!
2Praise Him, all His angels;
Praise Him, all His hosts!
3Praise Him, sun and moon;
Praise Him, all you stars of light!
4Praise Him, #Deut. 4:32–34; (Rom. 3:1, 2)you heavens of heavens,
And #Deut. 10:14; 1 Kin. 8:27; (Neh. 9:6)you waters above the heavens!
5Let them praise the name of the Lord,
For #Gen. 1:7He commanded and they were created.
6#Gen. 1:1, 6He also established them forever and ever;
He made a decree which shall not pass away.
7Praise the Lord from the earth,
#Ps. 89:37; (Jer. 31:35, 36; 33:20, 25)You great sea creatures and all the depths;
8Fire and hail, snow and clouds;
Stormy wind, fulfilling His word;
9#Is. 43:20Mountains and all hills;
Fruitful trees and all cedars;
10Beasts and all cattle;
Creeping things and flying fowl;
11Kings of the earth and all peoples;
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 #Is. 44:23; 49:13name alone is exalted;
His glory is above the earth and heaven.
14And He #Ps. 8:1has exalted the horn of His people,
The praise of #1 Sam. 2:1; Ps. 75:10all His saints—
Of the children of Israel,
#Ps. 149:9A people near to Him.
Praise the Lord!

Praise the Lord from the heavens;
praise him in the heights!
2Praise him, all his angels;
praise him, all his host!
3Praise him, sun and moon;
praise him, all you shining stars!
4Praise him, you highest heavens,
and you waters above the heavens!

for he commanded and they were created.
6He established them forever and ever;
he fixed their bounds, which cannot be passed.#148.6 Or he set a law that cannot pass away
7Praise the Lord from the earth,
you sea monsters and all deeps,
8fire and hail, snow and frost,
stormy wind fulfilling his command!
9Mountains and all hills,
fruit trees and all cedars!
10Wild animals and all cattle,
creeping things and flying birds!
11Kings of the earth and all peoples,
princes and all rulers of the earth!
12Young men and women alike,
old and young together!
13Let them praise the name of the Lord,
for his name alone is exalted;
his glory is above earth and heaven.
14He has raised up a horn for his people,
praise for all his faithful,
for the people of Israel who are close to him.
Praise the Lord!
