Psalms 148
1 Hallelujah. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens; praise Him in the heights.
Alleluia. Laudate Dominum de cælis: 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, 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 the LORD; for He commanded, and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 He hath also established them for ever and ever; He hath made a decree which shall not be transgressed.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi: præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise the LORD 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: quæ 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, creeping things and winged fowl;
Bestiæ, et universa pecora: serpentes, et volucres pennatæ:
11 Kings of the earth and all peoples, princes and all judges of the earth;
Reges terræ, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terræ.
12 Both young men and maidens, old men and children;
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 glory is above the earth and heaven.
quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius.
14 And He hath lifted up a horn for His people, a praise for all His saints, even for the children of Israel, a people near unto Him. Hallelujah.
Confessio eius super cælum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
