Psalm 148

Psalm

148 Praise Yahweh!

It is good to sing praises to our God.

It is a delightful thing to do and the right thing to do.

2 Jerusalem was destroyed, but Yahweh is enabling us to build Jerusalem again.

He is bringing back the people who were taken to other lands.

3 He enables those who were very discouraged to be encouraged again;

it is as though they have wounds and he bandages them.

4 He has determined how many stars there will be

and gives names to all of them.

5 Yahweh is great and very powerful,

and no one can measure how much he understands.

6 Yahweh lifts up those who have been oppressed,

and he throws the wicked down to the ground.

7 Thank Yahweh while you are singing to him to praise him;

on the harps, play music to our God.

8 He covers the sky with clouds,

and then he sends rain to the earth

and causes grass to grow on the hills.

9 He gives to animals the food that they need;

he gives food to young crows when they cry out because they are hungry.

10 He is not impressed with strong horses

or with men who can run fast.

11 Instead, what pleases him are those who have an awesome respect for him,

those who confidently expect him to continue to love them as he promised to do.

12 You people of Jerusalem, praise Yahweh!

Praise your God!

13 He guards your city by keeping its gates strong.

He blesses the people who live there.

14 He causes your people to become wealthy.

He gives you plenty of very good wheat to eat.

15 He commands things to happen throughout the earth;

his words quickly reach the place to which he sends them.

16 He sends snow to cover the ground like a white wool blanket,

and he scatters frost on the ground as wind scatters ashes.

17 He sends hail down like pebbles;

when that happens, it is very difficult to endure because the air becomes very cold.

18 But he commands the wind to blow, and it blows.

Then the hail melts and the water flows into the streams.

19 He sends his message to the descendants of Jacob;

he tells to his Israelite people the things that he has decreed and what he has decided.

20 He has not done that for any other nation;

the other nations do not know his laws.

Praise Yahweh!

Psalm

148 Praise Yahweh!

Praise him, you angels who are in the heavens;

praise him, you angels up in the sky!

2 All you angels who belong to him, praise him!

All you who are in the armies of Yahweh, praise him!

3 Sun and moon, you also must praise him!

You shining stars, you praise him!

4 You highest heavens, praise him!

You waters that are high above the sky, praise him!

5 I want all of these to praise Yahweh

because by commanding that they exist, he created them.

6 He set them in place;

he commanded that they should be there forever.

They cannot disobey that command!

7 Everything on the earth, praise Yahweh!

You huge creatures and everything else that is deep in the ocean,

8 fire and hail, snow and frost,

and strong winds that obey what he commands,

I tell all of you to praise Yahweh!

9 Hills and mountains,

fruit trees and cedar trees,

10 all the wild animals and all tame animals,

reptiles and other things that creep on the ground,

and all the birds, I tell all of you to praise Yahweh!

11 You kings on this earth and all the people that you rule,

you princes and all other rulers,

12 you young men and young women,

you old people and children, everyone, praise Yahweh!

13 I want them all to praise Yahweh

because he is greater than anyone else.

His power controls everything on the earth and in the heavens.

14 He caused us, his people, to be strong

so that we Israelite people who are very precious to him

should praise him,

So praise Yahweh!
