Psalm 150 – Praise Him With Trumpet, Harp, and Cymbals

The final psalm calls every instrument and every living thing to praise the LORD.

Psalm 150: Let Everything Praise the LORD

Psalm 150, the closing doxology of the Psalter, follows Psalms 149 by calling worshippers to praise God with trumpet, psaltery, harp, timbrel, and cymbals.


Praise ye the LORD. Praise God in his sanctuary: praise him in the firmament of his power.

Praise him for his mighty acts: praise him according to his excellent greatness.

Praise him with the sound of the trumpet: praise him with the psaltery and harp.

Praise him with the timbrel and dance: praise him with stringed instruments and organs.

Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the high sounding cymbals.

Let every thing that hath breath praise the LORD. Praise ye the LORD.

<a href="/bible/wbt/psalms/chapter-150/6">Psalms 150:6</a> gives the book's final command: let everything that hath breath praise the LORD, echoing the vow of <a href="/bible/wbt/psalms/chapter-145/21">Psalms 145:21</a> to bless his name forever.
