Psalms 148
1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
Alleluia. Laudate Dominum de cælis: laudate eum in excelsis.
2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
Laudate eum omnes angeli eius: laudate eum omnes virtutes eius.
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 are 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 established them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
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 vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
Ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum: quæ faciunt verbum eius:
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 people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
Reges terræ, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terræ.
12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
Iuvenes, et virgines: senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini:
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius.
14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye the LORD.
Confessio eius super cælum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
