14He has #See 1 Sam. 2:1 raised up a horn for his people,
# [Deut. 10:21; Jer. 17:14] praise for all his saints,
for the people of Israel who are #Deut. 4:7; Eph. 2:17 near to him.

PSALM 148
1Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights. 2Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts. 3Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light. 4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens. 5Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created: 6And he established them for ever and ever; he made for them a statute which shall not pass.
7Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps; 8Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word; 9Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars; 10Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl; 11Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth; 12Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, — 13Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens. 14And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints, even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Hallelujah!
