1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.*148.1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise: Heb. Hallelujah, etc

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

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

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

5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.

6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

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

9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:*148.10 flying…: Heb. birds of wing

11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.*148.13 excellent: Heb. exalted

14 He 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.

5 愿这一切都赞美耶和华的名，

13 愿这一切都赞美耶和华的名，

因为独有他的名被尊崇，

他的荣耀超越天地。

14 他使自己子民的角得以高举*"他使自己子民的角得以高举"或译："他为自己的子民兴起一个君王"；"君王"原文作"角"，

他所有的圣民，就是和他接近的以色列人，都赞美他。

你们要赞美耶和华。
