Psalms 150

1Hallelujah! PraiseGod in his sanctuary; praise him in the firmament of his power. 2Praise him in his mighty acts; praise him according to the abundance of his greatness. 3Praise him with the sound of the trumpet; praise him with lute and harp; 4Praise him with the tambour and dance; praise him with stringed instruments and the pipe; 5Praise him with loud cymbals; praise him with high sounding cymbals. 6Let everything that hath breath praise Jah. Hallelujah!
