The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork.

Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof.

Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.

He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.

Bless the LORD, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the LORD, O my soul.

O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.

Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The beast of the field shall honour me, the dragons and the owls: because I give waters in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert, to give drink to my people, my chosen.

Sing, O ye heavens; for the LORD hath done it: shout, ye lower parts of the earth: break forth into singing, ye mountains, O forest, and every tree therein: for the LORD hath redeemed Jacob, and glorified himself in Israel.

Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.

For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:

Ye that fear the LORD, praise him; all ye the seed of Jacob, glorify him; and fear him, all ye the seed of Israel.

Sing unto the LORD, O ye saints of his, and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

Be glad in the LORD, and rejoice, ye righteous: and shout for joy, all ye that are upright in heart.

Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.

Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:

Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwelleth at Jerusalem. Praise ye the LORD.

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.

This people have I formed for myself; they shall shew forth my praise.

By him therefore let us offer the sacrifice of praise to God continually, that is, the fruit of our lips giving thanks to his name.

Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light:

After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands;

And all the angels stood round about the throne, and about the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and worshipped God,

And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great.

And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.
