Psalms 148

1 Hallelujah! Praise Jehovah from the heavens; praise him in the heights.

alleluia laudate Dominum de caelis 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 him, sun and moon; praise him, all ye stars of light.

laudate eum sol et luna laudate eum omnes stellae et lumen

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that are above the heavens.

laudate eum caeli caelorum et aqua quae super caelum est

5 Let them praise the name of Jehovah, for he it is that commanded, and they were created:

laudent nomen Domini quia ipse dixit et facta sunt ipse mandavit et creata sunt

6 And he established them for ever and ever; he made [for them] a statute which shall not pass.

statuit ea in saeculum et in saeculum saeculi praeceptum posuit et non praeteribit

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 vapour, stormy wind fulfilling his word;

ignis grando nix glacies spiritus procellarum quae faciunt verbum eius

9 Mountains and all hills, fruit-trees and all cedars;

montes et omnes colles ligna fructifera et omnes cedri

10 Beasts and all cattle, creeping things and winged fowl;

bestiae et universa pecora serpentes et volucres pinnatae

11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;

reges terrae et omnes populi principes et omnes iudices terrae

12 Both young men and maidens, old men with youths, —

iuvenes et virgines senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini

13 Let them praise the name of Jehovah: for his name alone is exalted; his majesty is above the earth and the heavens.

quia exaltatum est nomen eius 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. Hallelujah!

confessio eius super caelum et terram et exaltabit cornu populi sui hymnus omnibus sanctis eius filiis Israhel populo adpropinquanti sibi
