Psalms 148

DOUAI-RHEIMS	VULGATA
1 Praise ye the Lord, because psalm is good: to our God be joyful and comely praise.	1 Alleluja. Laudate Dominum de cælis ; laudate eum in excelsis.
2 The Lord buildeth up Jerusalem: he will gather together the dispersed of Israel.	2 Laudate eum, omnes angeli ejus ; laudate eum, omnes virtutes ejus.
3 Who healeth the broken of heart, and bindeth up their bruises.	3 Laudate eum, sol et luna ; laudate eum, omnes stellæ et lumen.
4 Who telleth the number of the stars: and calleth them all by their names.	4 Laudate eum, cæli cælorum ; et aquæ omnes quæ super cælos sunt,
5 Great is our Lord, and great is his power: and of his wisdom there is no number.	5 laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt ; ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 The Lord lifteth up the meek, and bringeth the wicked down even to the ground.	6 Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi ; præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Sing ye to the Lord with praise: sing to our God upon the harp.	7 Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones et omnes abyssi ;
8 Who covereth the heaven with clouds, and prepareth rain for the earth. Who maketh grass to grow on the mountains, and herbs for the service of men.	8 ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum, quæ faciunt verbum ejus ;
9 Who giveth to beasts their food: and to the young ravens that call upon him.	9 montes, et omnes colles ; ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri ;
10 He shall not delight in the strength of the horse: nor take pleasure in the legs of a man.	10 bestiæ, et universa pecora ; serpentes, et volucres pennatæ ;
11 The Lord taketh pleasure in them that fear him: and in them that hope in his mercy.	11 reges terræ et omnes populi ; principes et omnes judices terræ ;
	12 juvenes et virgines ; senes cum junioribus, laudent nomen Domini :
	13 quia exaltatum est nomen ejus solius.
	14 Confessio ejus super cælum et terram ; et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis ejus ; filiis Israël, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluja.
