17 He casteth forth his ice like morsels: who is able to abide his
frost?
18 He sendeth out his word, and melteth them: he bloweth with his
wind, and the waters flow.
19 He sheweth his word unto Jacob: his statutes and ordinances unto
Israel.
20 He hath not dealt so with any nation: neither have the heathen
knowledge of his laws.
PSALM 148. _Laudate Dominum_.
O praise the Lord of heaven: praise him in the height.
2 Praise him, all ye angels of his: praise him, all his host.
3 Praise him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
4 Praise him, all ye heavens: and ye waters that are above the
heavens.
5 Let them praise the Name of the Lord: for he spake the word, and
they were made; he commanded, and they were created.
6 He hath made them fast for ever and ever: he hath given them a
law which shall not be broken.
7 Praise the Lord upon earth: ye dragons, and all deeps;
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapours: wind and storm, fulfilling his

9 Mountains and all hills: fruitful trees and all cedars;
10 Beasts and all cattle: worms and feathered fowls;
11 Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of
the world;
12 Young men and maidens, old men and children, praise the Name
of the Lord: for his Name only is excellent, and his praise above
heaven and earth.
13 He shall exalt the horn of his people; all his saints shall
praise him: even the children of Israel, even the people that
serveth him.
PSALM 149. _Cantate Domino_.

2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of
Sion be joyful in their King.
3 Let them praise his Name in the dance: let them sing praises unto

5 Let the saints be joyful with glory: let them rejoice in their

8 To bind their kings in chains: and their nobles with links of

9 That they may be avenged of them, as it is written: Such honour

PSALM 150. _Laudate Dominum_.
