 Praise him, heaven of heavens, * and you waters above the heavens.

Let them praise the Name of the ; * for he commanded, and they were created.

He made them stand fast for ever and ever; * he gave them a law which shall not pass away.

Praise the from the earth, * you sea&#8209;monsters and all deeps;

Fire and hail, snow and fog, * tempestuous wind, doing his will;

Mountains and all hills, * fruit trees and all cedars;

Wild beasts and all cattle, * creeping things and wingèd birds;

Kings of the earth and all peoples, * princes and all rulers of the world;

Young men and maidens, * old and young together.

Let them praise the Name of the, * for his Name only is exalted, his splendor is over earth and heaven.

He has raised up strength for his people and praise for all his loyal servants, * the children of Israel, a people who are near him. Hallelujah!
