Original Douay-Rheims Bible (1582/1609)
Psalms 148
1Alleluia. Praise ye our Lord from the heavens: praise ye him in the high places.
2Praise ye him all his Angels: praise ye him all his hosts:
3Praise ye him sun and moon: praise him all ye stars, and light.
4Praise him ye heavens of heavens: and the waters that are above the heavens,
5let them praise the name of our Lord. Because he said, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.
6He established them for ever, and for ever and ever: he put a precept, and it shall not pass.
7Praise our Lord from the earth: ye dragons, and all depths.
8Fire, hail, snow, ice, spirit of storms: which do his word:
9Mountains, and all little hills: trees that bear fruit, and all cedars.
10Beasts, and all cattle: serpents, and feathered fowls:
11Kings of the earth, & all peoples: Princes, and all judges of the earth.
12Young men and virgins: old with young let them praise the name of our Lord:
13because the name of him alone is exalted.
14The confession of him above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. An hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel a people approaching unto him. Alleluia.
