5 praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they became. He commanded, and they were created.	5 laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt ; ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.
6 He has stationed them in eternity, and for age after age. He has established a precept, and it will not pass away.	6 Statuit ea in æternum, et in sæculum sæculi ; præceptum posuit, et non præteribit.
7 Praise the Lord from the earth: you dragons and all deep places,	7 Laudate Dominum de terra, dracones et omnes abyssi ;

10 wild beasts and all cattle, serpents and feathered flying things,	10 bestiæ, et universa pecora ; serpentes, et volucres pennatæ ;
11 kings of the earth and all peoples, leaders and all judges of the earth,	11 reges terræ et omnes populi ; principes et omnes judices terræ ;
12 young men and virgins. Let the older men with the younger men, praise the name of the Lord.	12 juvenes et virgines ; senes cum junioribus, laudent nomen Domini :
13 For his name alone is exalted.	13 quia exaltatum est nomen ejus solius.
14 Confession of him is beyond heaven and earth, and he has exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his holy ones, to the sons of Israel, to a people close to him. Alleluia.	14 Confessio ejus super cælum et terram ; et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis ejus ; filiis Israël, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluja.
