1Prayse ye the Lorde, prayse ye God out of heauen: prayse ye hym on hygh aboue.
2Prayse hym all ye his angels: prayse hym all ye his hoast.
3Prayse ye hym sunne and moone: praise hym all ye starres that geue lyght.
4Prayse ye hym all ye heauens: and ye waters that be aboue the heauens.
5Euen they shoulde prayse the name of God: for he commaunded, and they were created.
6He hath set them sure for euer and euer: he hath geuen them a lawe which shall not be broken.
7Prayse ye God from the earth: ye dragons and all deepes.
8Fire and hayle, snowe and vapours: stormie wynde fulfyllyng his worde.
9Mountaynes and all hylles: fruitfull trees and all Cedars.
10Beastes and all cattell: wormes and fethered foules.
11Kynges of the earth and all people: princes and all iudges of the earth.
12Young men and maydens, olde men with children,
13shoulde prayse the name of God: for his name only is most excellent, and his maiestie aboue earth and heauen.
14He hath exalted the horne of his people: the prayse of all his saintes, euen of the children of Israel, a people that is most nye vnto him. Prayse ye the Lord.
