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 aqua quae super caelum est

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 saeculum 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 pinnatae

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 exaltabit cornu populi sui hymnus omnibus sanctis eius filiis Israhel populo adpropinquanti sibi
