The Whole Creation Invoked to Praise the LORD.

¹Praise ²the LORD!Praise the LORD ^afrom the heavens;Praise Him ^bin the heights!2 Praise Him, ^aall His angels;Praise Him, ^ball His heavenly armies!3 Praise Him, sun and moon;Praise Him, all stars of light!4 Praise Him, ¹^ahighest heavens,And the ^bwaters that are above the heavens!5 They are to praise the name of the LORD,For ^aHe commanded and they were created.6 He has also ^aestablished them forever and ever;He has made a ^bdecree, and it will not pass away.

7 Praise the LORD from the earth,^aSea monsters, and all the ocean ^bdepths;8 ^aFire and hail, ^bsnow and ^cclouds;^dStormy wind, ^efulfilling His word;9 ^aMountains and all hills;Fruit ^btrees and all cedars;10 ^aAnimals and all cattle;^bCrawling things and winged fowl;11 ^aKings of the earth and all peoples;Rulers and all judges of the earth;12 Both young men and virgins;Old men and children.

13 They are to praise the name of the LORD,For His ^aname alone is exalted;His ^bmajesty is above earth and heaven.14 And He has ^alifted up a horn for His people,^bPraise for all His godly ones,For the sons of Israel, a people ^cnear to Him.¹Praise ²the LORD!
