1 Hallelujah! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise him in the high places!
2 Praise him, all you his angels; praise him, all you his hosts!
3 Praise him, sun and moon; praise him, all stars of light!
4 Praise him, heavens of heavens, and you waters above the heavens!
5 Let them praise the LORD's name, for he gave the command and they were created.
6 He set them in place forever and ever; he gave a decree that will not pass away.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, you great sea creatures and all the depths,
8 fire and hail, snow and fog, storm wind that carries out his word,
9 mountains and every hill, fruit trees and every cedar,
10 wild animals and all cattle, creeping things and birds on the wing,
11 kings of the earth and all nations, rulers and all judges of the earth,
12 young men and young women too, the old together with the young!
13 Let them praise the LORD's name, for his name alone is lifted high; his splendor is over earth and heaven.
14 He has lifted up a horn for his people, praise for all his faithful ones, for the children of Israel, the people close to him. Hallelujah!
