Psalms 148
1 Praise ye Jehovah. Praise ye Jehovah from the heavens. Praise him in the heights.
Alleluja. Laudate Dominum de cælis; laudate eum in excelsis.
2 Praise ye him, all his agents. 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 are above the heavens.
Laudate eum, cæli cælorum; et aquæ omnes quæ super cælos sunt,
5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah. For he commanded, and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt; ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 He has also established them forever and ever. He has made a decree which shall not pass away.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi; præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise Jehovah from the earth, ye sea-monsters, and all deeps,
Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones et omnes abyssi;
8 fire and hail, snow and vapor, 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 birds,
bestiæ, et universa pecora; serpentes, et volucres pennatæ;
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, rulers and all judges of the earth,
reges terræ et omnes populi; principes et omnes judices terræ;
12 both young men and virgins, old men and sons.
juvenes et virgines; senes cum junioribus, laudent nomen Domini:
13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for his name alone is exalted. His glory is above the earth and the heavens.
quia exaltatum est nomen ejus solius.
14 And he has lifted up the horn of his people, the praise of all his sanctified, even of the sons of Israel, a people near to him. Praise ye Jehovah.
Confessio ejus super cælum et terram; et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis ejus; filiis Israël, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluja.
