Laudate eum cæli cælorum: et aquæ omnes, quæ super cælos sunt,
5 Let them prayse the Name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 And he hath established them for euer and euer: he hath made an ordinance, which shall not passe.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi: præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Prayse ye the Lord from the earth, ye dragons and all depths:
Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones, et omnes abyssi.
8 Fire and hayle, snowe and vapours, stormie winde, which execute his worde:

9 Mountaines and all hils, fruitfull trees and all ceders:
Montes, et omnes colles: ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri.

Reges terræ, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terræ.
12 Yong men and maidens, also olde men and children:
Iuvenes, et virgines: senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini:

Confessio eius super cælum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
