Psalm 148

¹Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
²Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
³Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
⁴Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
⁵Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
⁶He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
⁷Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
⁸Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
⁹Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
¹⁰Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
¹¹Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
¹²Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
¹³Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
¹⁴He 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.

Psalm 150

¹Praise ye the Lord. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
²Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.
³Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.
⁴Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.
⁵Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.
⁶Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord.

55Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
²Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
³Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
⁴Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
⁵Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the Lord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
⁶Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
⁷Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
⁸For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord.
⁹For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
¹⁰For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
¹¹So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
¹²For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
¹³Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.

¹⁰Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of his might.
¹¹Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
¹²For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
¹³Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
¹⁴Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
¹⁵And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
¹⁶Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
¹⁷And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
¹⁸Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;
¹⁹And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
²⁰For which I am an ambassador in bonds: that therein I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak.
²¹But that ye also may know my affairs, and how I do, Tychicus, a beloved brother and faithful minister in the Lord, shall make known to you all things:
²²Whom I have sent unto you for the same purpose, that ye might know our affairs, and that he might comfort your hearts.
²³Peace be to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
²⁴Grace be with all them that love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity. Amen.
