Psalm 148

Vulgate

   1 ALLELUIA. Laudate Dominum de caelis, laudate eum in excelsis.
   2 Laudate eum, omnes angeli eius, laudate eum, omnes virtutes eius.
   3 Laudate eum, sol et luna, laudate eum, omnes stellae lucentes.
   4 Laudate eum, caeli caelorum et aquae omnes, quae super caelos sunt. -
   5 Laudent nomen Domini, quia ipse mandavit, et creata sunt;
   6 statuit ea in aeternum et in saeculum saeculi; praeceptum posuit, et non praeteribit.
   7 Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones et omnes abyssi,
   8 ignis, grando, nix, fumus, spiritus procellarum, qui facit verbum eius,
   9 montes et omnes colles, ligna fructifera et omnes cedri,
   10 bestiae et universa pecora, serpentes et volucres pennatae.
   11 Reges terrae et omnes populi, principes et omnes iudices terrae,
   12 iuvenes et virgines, senes cum iunioribus
   13 laudent nomen Domini, quia exaltatum est nomen eius solius. Magnificentia eius super caelum et terram,
   14 et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis eius, filiis Israel, populo, qui propinquus est ei. ALLELUIA.

King James Version

   1 Praise ye the LORD. Praise ye the LORD from the heavens: praise him in the heights.
   2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.
   3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.
   4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.
   5 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for he commanded, and they were created.
   6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.
   7 Praise the LORD from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:
   8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapour; stormy wind fulfilling his word:
   9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:
   10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:
   11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:
   12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:
   13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.
   14 He also exalteth 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.
