< Psalms 148 >
1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD 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 host.
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 stellae, et lumen.
4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
Laudate eum caeli caelorum: et aquae omnes, quae super caelos 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 stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which 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 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; fruitful trees and all cedars:
Montes, et omnes colles: ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri.
10 Beasts and all cattle; creeping things and flying fowl:
Bestiae, et universa pecora: serpentes, et volucres pennatae:
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 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 the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him. Praise ye the LORD.
Confessio eius super caelum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
