PSALM 150

A Psalm of Praise.

^1 (F1)Praise ^(F2)the LORD!
Praise God in His ^(C1)sanctuary;
Praise Him in His mighty ^(F3)(C2)expanse.

² Praise Him for His ^(C1)mighty deeds;
Praise Him according to His excellent ^(C2)greatness.

³ Praise Him with ^(C1)trumpet sound;
Praise Him with ^(C2)harp and lyre.

⁴ Praise Him with ^(C1)timbrel and dancing;
Praise Him with ^(C2)stringed instruments and ^(C3)pipe.

⁵ Praise Him with loud ^(C1)cymbals;
Praise Him with resounding cymbals.

⁶ Let ^(C1)everything that has breath praise ^(F1)the LORD.
^(F2)Praise ^(F1)the LORD!

⁷ To ^(C1)execute vengeance on the nations
And punishment on the peoples,

⁸ To bind their kings ^(C1)with chains
And their ^(C2)nobles with fetters of iron,

⁹ To ^(C1)execute on them the judgment written;
This is an ^(C2)honor for all His godly ones.
^(F1)Praise ^(F2)the LORD!

^10 (C1)Beasts and all cattle;
^(C2)Creeping things and winged fowl;

^11 (C1)Kings of the earth and all peoples;
Princes and all judges of the earth;

¹² Both young men and virgins;
Old men and children.

¹³ Let them praise the name of the LORD,
For His ^(C1)name alone is exalted;
His ^(C2)glory is above earth and heaven.

¹⁴ And He has ^(C1)lifted up a horn for His people,
^(C2)Praise for all His godly ones;
Even for the sons of Israel, a people ^(C3)near to Him.
^(F1)Praise ^(F2)the LORD!

¹⁵ He sends forth His ^(C1)command to the earth;
His ^(C2)word runs very swiftly.

¹⁶ He gives ^(C1)snow like wool;
He scatters the ^(C2)frost like ashes.

¹⁷ He casts forth His ^(C1)ice as fragments;
Who can stand before His ^(C2)cold?
