Les Psaumes 148

1Hallelujah.Praise GOD from the heavens;give praise on high.

2Give praise, all you angels,give praise, all divine hosts.

3Give praise, sun and moon,give praise, all bright stars.

4Give praise, highest heavens,and you waters that are above the heavens.

5Let them praise the name of GOD—who commanded that they be created,

6and who made them endure forever,establishing an order that shall never change.

7Praise GOD, O you who are on earth,all sea monsters and ocean depths,

8fire and hail, snow and smoke,storm wind that executes God’s command,

9all mountains and hills,all fruit trees and cedars,

10all wild and tamed animals,creeping things and winged birds,

11all kings and peoples of the earth,all princes of the earth and its judges,

12youths and maidens alike,old and young together.

13Let them praise GOD’s name—for sublime is this name alone—of the One whose splendor covers heaven and earth.

14[God] has exalted the horn of this peoplefor the glory of all faithful ones,Israel, the people brought close.Hallelujah.
