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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

14 He 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.

148 ¡Aleluya!

Alaben al Señor desde los cielos,
    alábenlo desde las alturas.
Alábenlo, todos sus ángeles,
    alábenlo, todos sus ejércitos.
Alábenlo, sol y luna,
    alábenlo, estrellas luminosas.
Alábenlo ustedes, altísimos cielos,
    y ustedes, las aguas que están sobre los cielos.

Sea alabado el nombre del Señor,
    porque él dio una orden y todo fue creado.
Todo quedó afirmado para siempre;
    emitió un estatuto que no será abolido.

Alaben al Señor desde la tierra
    los grandes animales marinos y las profundidades del mar,
el rayo y el granizo, la nieve y la neblina,
    el viento tempestuoso que obedece su palabra,
los montes y todas las colinas,
    los árboles frutales y todos los cedros,
10 los animales salvajes y los domésticos,
    los reptiles y las aves,
11 los reyes de la tierra y todas las naciones,
    los príncipes y los gobernantes de la tierra,
12 los jóvenes y las jóvenes,
    los ancianos y los niños.

13 Alaben el nombre del Señor,
    porque solo su nombre es exaltado;
    su esplendor está por encima de la tierra y de los cielos.
14 ¡Él ha dado poder a su pueblo![a]
    ¡A él sea la alabanza de todos sus fieles,
    de los hijos de Israel, su pueblo cercano!

¡Aleluya!
