Psalms 148
1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
Alleluja. Laudate Dominum de cælis; laudate eum in excelsis.
2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his host.
Laudate eum, omnes angeli ejus; laudate eum, omnes virtutes ejus.
3 Praise ye him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.
Laudate eum, sol et luna; laudate eum, omnes stellæ et lumen.
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
Laudate eum, cæli cælorum; et aquæ omnes quæ super cælos sunt,
5 Let them praise 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 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass away.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi; præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones et omnes abyssi;
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour; stormy wind, fulfilling his word:
ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum, quæ faciunt verbum ejus;
9 Mountains and all hills; fruitful trees and all cedars:
montes, et omnes colles; ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri;
10 Beasts and all cattle; creeping things and flying fowl:
bestiæ, et universa pecora; serpentes, et volucres pennatæ;
11 Kings of the earth and all peoples; princes and all judges of the earth:
reges terræ et omnes populi; principes et omnes judices terræ;
12 Both young men and maidens; old men and children:
juvenes et virgines; senes cum junioribus, laudent nomen Domini:
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD; for his name alone is exalted: his glory is above the earth and heaven.
quia exaltatum est nomen ejus solius.
14 And he hath lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
Confessio ejus super cælum et terram; et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis ejus; filiis Israël, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluja.
