Praise you the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.
For he has looked down from the height of his sanctuary; from heaven did the LORD behold the earth;
Lift up your hands in the sanctuary, and bless the LORD.
Praise you the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.
The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament shows his handiwork.
Day to day utters speech, and night to night shows knowledge.
The voice of the LORD makes the hinds to calve, and discovers the forests: and in his temple does every one speak of his glory.
Then I looked, and, behold, in the firmament that was above the head of the cherubim there appeared over them as it were a sapphire stone, as the appearance of the likeness of a throne.
And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
