1Praise ye the LORD . Praise ye the LORD from the heavens : praise him in the heights . 2Praise ye him, all his angels : praise ye him, all his hosts . 3Praise ye him, sun and moon : praise him, all ye stars of light . 4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens , and ye waters that be above the heavens .
Praise from the Earth
5Let them praise the name of the LORD : for he commanded , and they were created . 6He hath also stablished them for ever and ever : he hath made a decree which shall not pass . 7Praise the LORD from the earth , ye dragons , and all deeps : 8Fire , and hail ; snow , and vapour ; stormy wind fulfilling his word : 9Mountains , and all hills ; fruitful trees , and all cedars : 10Beasts , and all cattle ; creeping things , and flying fowl :
The Purpose of Creation's Praise
11Kings of the earth , and all people ; 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 name alone is excellent ; his glory is above the earth and heaven . 14He also exalteth the horn of his people , the praise of all his saints ; even of the children of Israel , a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD .
