1Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.

1Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

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

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

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

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

4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens: and let all the waters that are above the heavens

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

5Praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.

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

6He hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, and it shall not pass away.

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

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

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

8Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds, which fulfil his word:

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

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

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

10Beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls:

10Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

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

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

12Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:

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

13For his name alone is exalted.

13Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

14The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia.

14He 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.
