Laudate Dominum.

O praise the LORD | from the heavens:

* praise | him in the heights.

2 Praise him, all ye | angels• of his:

* praise | him, all his host.

3 Praise him, | sun and moon:

* praise him, | all ye stars and light.

4 Praise him, | all ye heavens,

* and ye waters that | are above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the Name | of the LORD:

* for he spake the word, and they were made; he commanded, | and they were created.

6 He hath made them fast for | ever• and ever:

* he hath given them a law | which shall not be broken.

7 Praise the LORD | from the earth,

* ye | dragons• and all deeps;

8 Fire and hail, | snow and vapours,

* wind and | storm, ful•filling• his word;

9 Mountains and | all hills;

* fruitful | trees and all cedars;

10 Beasts and | all cattle;

* creeping | things and flying fowls;

11 Kings of the earth, and | all peoples;

* princes, and all | judges of the world;

12 Young men and maidens, old men and children, praise the Name | of the LORD:

* for his Name only is excellent, and his praise a- | -bove heaven and earth.

13 He shall exalt the horn of his people: all his | saints shall praise him;

* even the children of Israel, even the | people• that serveth him.

Glory be to the Father, and | to the Son,

* and | to the Holy Ghost,

As it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever shall be,

* world without | end.  Amen.
