Alleluia, [a Psalm] of Aggæus and Zacharias. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the highest.
Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
Praise him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and the water that is above the heavens.
Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he spoke, and they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
He has established them for ever, even for ever and ever: he has made an ordinance, and it shall not pass away.
Praise the Lord from the earth, ye serpents, and all deeps.
Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy wind; the things that perform his word.
Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
wild beasts, and all cattle; reptiles, and winged birds:
kings of the earth, and all peoples; princes, and all judges of the earth:
young men and virgins, old men with youths:
let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name only is exalted; his praise is above the earth and heaven,
and he shall exalt the horn of his people, [there is] a hymn for all his saints, [even] of the children of Israel, a people who draw near to him.
