1 Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights.

2 Praise ye him, all his angels; praise ye him, all his hosts.

3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:

6 And he established them for ever and ever; he made {for them} a statute which shall not pass.

7 Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;

9 Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars;

10 Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;

12 Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, -

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.
