4 Praise ye Him, heavens of heavens, And ye waters that are above the heavens.
Laudate eum cæli cælorum: et aquæ omnes, quæ super cælos sunt,
5 They do praise the name of Jehovah, For He commanded, and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 And He establisheth them for ever to the age, A statute He gave, and they pass not over.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi: præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise ye Jehovah from the earth, Dragons and all deeps,
Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones, et omnes abyssi.
8 Fire and hail, snow and vapour, Whirlwind doing His word;
Ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum: quæ faciunt verbum eius:
9 The mountains and all heights, Fruit tree, and all cedars,
Montes, et omnes colles: ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri.
10 The wild beast, and all cattle, Creeping thing, and winged bird,
Bestiæ, et universa pecora: serpentes, et volucres pennatæ:
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Chiefs, and all judges of earth,
Reges terræ, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terræ.
12 Young men, and also maidens, Aged men, with youths,
Iuvenes, et virgines: senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini:
13 They praise the name of Jehovah, For His name alone hath been set on high, His honour [is] above earth and heavens.
quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius.
14 And He exalteth the horn of His people, The praise of all His saints, Of the sons of Israel, a people near Him. Praise ye Jah!
Confessio eius super cælum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
