THE MESSAGE

Psalms 148

1 1-5 Hallelujah!
Praise God from heaven,
    praise him from the mountaintops;
Praise him, all you his angels,
    praise him, all you his warriors,
Praise him, sun and moon,
    praise him, you morning stars;
Praise him, high heaven,
    praise him, heavenly rain clouds;
Praise, oh let them praise the name of God
    he spoke the word, and there they were!

6 He set them in place
    from all time to eternity;
He gave his orders,
    and that's it!7-12 Praise God from earth,
    you sea dragons, you fathomless ocean deeps;
Fire and hail, snow and ice,
    hurricanes obeying his orders;
Mountains and all hills,
    apple orchards and cedar forests;
Wild beasts and herds of cattle,
    snakes, and birds in flight;
Earth's kings and all races,
    leaders and important people,
Robust men and women in their prime,
    and yes, graybeards and little children.13-14 Let them praise the name of God
    it's the only Name worth praising.
His radiance exceeds anything in earth and sky;
    he's built a monument—his very own people!

Praise from all who love God!
    Israel's children, intimate friends of God.
Hallelujah!
