6 He hath set them for ever and ever; He gave a statute that will not pass away.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth, you great fishes, and all the deeps,

8 fire and hail, snow and mist, a stormy wind that fulfills his word,

9 The mountains and all the hills, the fruitful trees and all the cedars,

10 Beasts, and all cattle, and creeping things, and winged birds,

11 Kings of the earth, and all nations, princes, and all judges of the earth,

12 Young men and maidens, old men and youths

13 Let them praise the name of the Lord, for his name alone is exalted, his glory is on earth and in heaven.

14 He has exalted the horn of his people, the glory of all his saints, the children of Israel, a people who are near to him. Alleluia.

Psalm 149

[Alleluia.]

1 Sing a new song to the Lord; praise be to Him in the assembly of the saints.

2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.

3 Let them praise his name with faces, let them sing to him with timbrel and harp,

4 for the Lord is well pleased with his people, and glorifies the lowly with salvation.

5 Let the saints rejoice in glory, let them rejoice in their couches.

6 Let praise be to God in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand,

7 to take vengeance on the nations, to punish the nations,

8 To put their kings in chains, and their nobles in fetters of iron,

9 To execute a written judgment on them. This honor is to all His saints. Alleluia.

Psalm 150

[Alleluia.]

1 Praise God in his holiness, praise him in the firmament of his power.

2 Praise him according to his might, praise him according to the multitude of his majesty.

3 Praise him with the sound of the trumpet, praise him with the psaltery and the harp.

4 Praise him with the tympanum and the choir, praise him with the strings and the organ.

5 Praise him with loud cymbals, praise him with loud cymbals.

6 Let everything that breathes praise the Lord! Alleluia.
