1 ¡Aleluya! Alaben a Yavé desde los cielos. Alábenlo en las alturas. 2 Alábenlo, todos sus ángeles. Alábenlo, todas sus huestes. 3 Alábenlo, sol y luna. Alábenlo, todas lucientes estrellas. 4 Alábenlo, los más altos cielos, Y las aguas que están sobre los cielos. 5 Alaben el Nombre de Yavé, Porque Él mandó, Y fueron creados. 6 Y los estableció eternamente y para siempre. Él dio un decreto que no pasará. 7 Alaben a Yavé desde la tierra: Cetáceos y todos los abismos, 8 El fuego y el granizo, la nieve y el vapor, El viento tempestuoso que ejecuta su Palabra, 9 Las montañas y todas las colinas, Árboles frutales y todo cedro, 10 Los animales salvajes y todo ganado, Reptiles y ave alada, 11 Reyes de la tierra y todos los pueblos, Magistrados y todos los jueces de la tierra, 12 Tanto jóvenes varones como doncellas, Los ancianos y los niños, 13 Alaben el Nombre de Yavé, Porque solo su Nombre es exaltado. Su gloria está por encima de la tierra y el cielo. 14 Y Él levantó un poder para su pueblo, Alabanza para todos sus fieles, De los hijos de Israel, un pueblo cercano a Él. ¡Aleluya! ¡Aleluya!

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).

Nor shall the heaven of heavens declare this, nor the waters which are above the heavens.

How could the Seraphim cry "Holy, Holy, Holy," were they not taught by the Spirit how often true religion requires them to lift their voice in this ascription of glory? Do "all His angels" and "all His hosts" praise God?
