New Century Version

Psalms 148:9-14 New Century Version (NCV)

9. mountains and all hills,fruit trees and all cedars,

10. wild animals and all cattle,crawling animals and birds,

11. kings of the earth and all nations,princes and all rulers of the earth,

12. young men and women,old people and children.

13. Praise the Lord,because he alone is great.He is more wonderful than heaven and earth.

14. God has given his people a king.He should be praised by all who belong to him;he should be praised by the Israelites, the people closest to his heart.Praise the Lord!
