Psalms 148
1 Praise ye Yah, Praise Yahweh, out of the heavens, Praise him, in the heights;
Alleluia. Laudate Dominum de cælis: laudate eum in excelsis.
2 Praise him, all his messengers, Praise him, all his host;
Laudate eum omnes angeli eius: laudate eum omnes virtutes eius.
3 Praise 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, O 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 Yahweh, for, he, commanded, and they were created;
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt: ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 So caused he them to stand perpetually—age-abidingly, A decree, hath he given, and it passeth not beyond.
Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi: præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise Yahweh, out of the earth, sea monsters, and all resounding 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 Ye mountains, and all hills, fruit trees, and all cedars;
Montes, et omnes colles: ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri.
10 Thou wild-beast, and all ye cattle, crawling creature, and bird of wing;
Bestiæ, et universa pecora: serpentes, et volucres pennatæ:
11 Kings of earth, and all peoples, Rulers, and all judges of earth;
Reges terræ, et omnes populi: principes, et omnes iudices terræ.
12 Young men, yea even virgins, elders, and children.
Iuvenes, et virgines: senes cum iunioribus laudent nomen Domini:
13 Let them praise the Name of Yahweh, for lofty is his Name alone, His splendour is over earth and heavens.
quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius.
14 Therefore hath he exalted a horn for his people, a praise for all his men of lovingkindness, for the sons of Israel—a people near him, Praise ye Yah!
Confessio eius super cælum, et terram: et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius: filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluia.
