2 Praise him, all his angels; Praise him, all his hosts.

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

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens,
And ye waters that are above the heavens.
5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah ;
For he commanded, and they were created ;
6 And he made them stand forever and ever;
He set a bound, and they shall not pass over.
7 Praise Jehovah, from the earth;

Ye sea-monsters, and all deeps;

8 Fire and hail, snow and vapor,
Stormy wind fulfilling his word;
9 Ye mountains and all hills,
Fruit-trees, and all cedars ;

10 Beasts, and all cattle,

;

Creeping things, and winged birds; 11 Kings of the earth, and all peoples, Princes, and all judges of the earth ; 12 Young men, and also maidens, Old men, with children;

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah ; For exalted is his name alone,

14

His majesty is above earth and heaven.
And he raised up a horn for his people,
A praise for all his saints,

For the sons of Israel, a people near to him.
Praise ye JAH.

PSALM CXLIX.

Sing to Jehovah a new song,

His praise in the congregation of saints.

V. 6, 2d member. Or, He made a decree, and it shall not pass.

2 Let Israel rejoice in his Maker,

The sons of Zion exult in their king.

3 Let them praise his name in the dance;

Let them sing praise to him with timbrel and harp. 4 For Jehovah has pleasure in his people; He beautifies the lowly with salvation. 5 Let the saints triumph in glory, Let them sing aloud upon their beds; 6 Praises of God in their throat,

And a two-edged sword in their hand; 7 To execute vengeance on the heathen, Punishments on the peoples;

8 To bind their kings with chains,

And their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 To execute upon them the judgment written. It is an honor for all his saints.

Praise ye JAH.

PSALM CL.

1 PRAISE ye JAH.

Praise God in his sanctuary ;

Praise him in the expanse of his power.

2 Praise him for his mighty acts;

Praise him according to his abundant greatness. 3 Praise him with sound of trumpet; Praise him with lute and harp.

[ocr errors]

4 Praise him with timbrel and dance
Praise him with strings and pipe.
5 Praise him on the loud cymbals;
Praise him on cymbals of lofty sound.
6 Let all breath praise JAH.

Praise ye JAH.
