Psalms 148
1 Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.
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 ye him, O sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.
Laudate eum sol et luna: laudate eum omnes stellae, et lumen.
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens: and let all the waters that are above the heavens
Laudate eum caeli caelorum: et aquae omnes, quae super caelos sunt,
5 Praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 He hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, and it shall not pass away.
Statuit ea in aeternum, et in saeculum saeculi: praeceptum posuit, et non praeteribit.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all ye deeps:
Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones, et omnes abyssi.
8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds which fulfill his word:
Ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum: quae 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: serpents and feathered fowls:
Bestiae, et universa pecora: serpentes, et volucres pennatae:
11 Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of the earth:
Reges terrae, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terrae.
12 Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:
Iuvenes, et virgines: senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini:
13 For his name alone is exalted.
quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius.
14 The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia.
Confessio eius super caelum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
