    Where This Verse Sits

    Psalm 150:6 appears in Psalms chapter 150, verse 6. Psalm 150 is the grand finale of the entire Psalter, a collection compiled over roughly 1,000 years. After 149 psalms of praise, lament, petition, and thanksgiving, the book concludes with this universal call. The Hebrew phrase 'kol han'shamah' (everything that has breath) extends praise beyond Israel to all living creatures.

    The Verse Itself

    "Let every thing that hath breath praise the Lord. Praise ye the Lord."

    — Psalm 150:6 (KJV)

    Flow of the Passage

    To grasp Psalm 150:6 fully, read it inside the surrounding paragraph. The verses before set up the argument, and the verses after show its outworking. Psalms 150 as a whole carries forward the theme of praise, and this single verse is one beat in that larger movement.

    The book of Psalms concludes with this universal call to praise. If you have breath, you have reason and ability to praise the Lord.
