| # Chapter 148
#### 1 | Give praise to the Lord. Let the Lord be praised from the heavens: give him praise in the skies.
#### 2 | Give praise to him, all you his angels: give praise to him, all his armies.
#### 3 | Give praise to him, you sun and moon: give praise to him, all you stars of light.
#### 4 | Give praise to him, you highest heavens, and you waters which are over the heavens.
#### 5 | Let them give praise to the name of the Lord: for he gave the order, and they were made.
#### 6 | He has put them in their places for ever; he has given them their limits which may not be broken.
#### 7 | Give praise to the Lord from the earth, you great sea-beasts, and deep places:
#### 8 | Fire and rain of ice, snow and mists; storm-wind, doing his word:
#### 9 | Mountains and all hills; fruit-trees and all trees of the mountains:
#### 10 | Beasts and all cattle; insects and winged birds:
#### 11 | Kings of the earth, and all peoples; rulers and all judges of the earth:
#### 12 | Young men and virgins; old men and children:
#### 13 | Let them give glory to the name of the Lord: for his name only is to be praised: his kingdom is over the earth and the heaven.
#### 14 | He has put on high the horn of his people, for the praise of all his saints; even the children of Israel, a people which is near to him. Let the Lord be praised.
