1 Hallelujah! Praise the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the highest places.
Alleluia. Laudate Dominum de cælis: laudate eum in excelsis.
2 Praise Him, all His angels; praise Him, all His heavenly hosts.
Laudate eum omnes angeli eius: laudate eum omnes virtutes eius.
3 Praise Him, O sun and moon; praise Him, all you shining stars.
Laudate eum sol et luna: laudate eum omnes stellæ, et lumen.
4 Praise Him, O highest heavens, and you waters above the skies.
Laudate eum cæli cælorum: et aquæ omnes, quæ super cælos sunt,
5 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for He gave the command and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 He established them forever and ever; He issued a decree that will never pass away.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi: præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise the LORD from the earth, all great sea creatures and ocean depths,
Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones, et omnes abyssi.
8 lightning and hail, snow and clouds, powerful wind fulfilling His word,
Ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum: quæ faciunt verbum eius:
9 mountains and all hills, fruit trees and all cedars,
Montes, et omnes colles: ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri.
10 wild animals and all cattle, crawling creatures and flying birds,
Bestiæ, et universa pecora: serpentes, et volucres pennatæ:
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all rulers of the earth,
Reges terræ, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terræ.
12 young men and maidens, old and young together.
Iuvenes, et virgines: senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini:
13 Let them praise the name of the LORD, for His name alone is exalted; His splendor is above the earth and the heavens.
quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius.
14 He has raised up a horn for His people, the praise of all His saints, of Israel, a people near to Him. Hallelujah!
Confessio eius super cælum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
