 4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens: and let all the waters that are above the heavens
Laudate eum, caeli caelorum; et aquae omnes quae super caelos sunt,

 5 Praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.
laudent nomen Domini. Quia ipse dixit, et facta sunt; ipse mandavit, et creata sunt.

 6 He hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, and it shall not pass away.
Statuit ea in aeternum, et in saeculum saeculi; praeceptum posuit, et non praeteribit.

 7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all ye deeps:

 8 Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds which fulfill his word:
ignis, grando, nix, glacies, spiritus procellarum, quae faciunt verbum ejus;

 9 Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars:
montes, et omnes colles; ligna fructifera, et omnes cedri;

 10 Beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls:
bestiae, et universa pecora; serpentes, et volucres pennatae;

 11 Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of the earth:
reges terrae et omnes populi, principes et omnes judices terrae;

 12 Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:
juvenes et virgines, senes cum junioribus laudent nomen Domini,

 13 For his name alone is exalted.
quia exaltatum est nomen ejus solius.

 14 The praise of him is above heaven and earth: and he hath exalted the horn of his people. A hymn to all his saints: to the children of Israel, a people approaching to him. Alleluia.
Confessio ejus super caelum et terram; et exaltavit cornu populi sui. Hymnus omnibus sanctis ejus; filiis Israel, populo appropinquanti sibi. Alleluja.
