Psalm 148 | Liturgical Calendar

1

Praise the Lord. O praise the Lord of heaven; *

praise him in the heights.

2

Praise him, all you angels of his; *

praise him, all his host.

3

Praise him, sun and moon; *

praise him, all you stars of light.

4

Praise him, all you highest heavens, *

and you waters that are above the heavens.

5

Let them praise the Name of the Lord, *

for he spoke the word, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.

6

He has made them stand fast for ever and ever; *

he has given them a law which shall not be broken.

7

Praise the Lord upon earth, *

you sea monsters and all deeps;

8

Fire and hail, snow and fog, *

wind and storm, fulfilling his word;

9

Mountains and all hills, *

fruitful trees and all cedars;

10

Beasts and all cattle, *

creeping things and birds of the air;

11

Kings of the earth and all peoples, *

princes and all rulers of the world;

12

Young men and maidens, *

old men and children together.

13

Let them praise the Name of the Lord; *

for his Name only is excellent, and his praise above heaven and earth.

14

He shall exalt the horn of his people; all his faithful shall praise him, *

the children of Israel, the people who are near him. Praise the Lord.
