Psalms

1Praise ye the 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, O sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars and light.

4Praise him, ye heavens of heavens: and let all the waters that are above the heavens

5Praise the name of the Lord. For he spoke, and they were made: he commanded, and they were created.

6He hath established them for ever, and for ages of ages: he hath made a decree, and it shall not pass away.

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

8Fire, hail, snow, ice, stormy winds which fulfill his word:

9Mountains and all hills, fruitful trees and all cedars:

10Beasts and all cattle: serpents and feathered fowls:

11Kings of the earth and all people: princes and all judges of the earth:

12Young men and maidens: let the old with the younger, praise the name of the Lord:

13For his name alone is exalted.

14The 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.

1ca tụng Người, trên chốn cao xanh.

2ca tụng Người, hỡi toàn thể thiên binh !

3ca tụng Người, muôn tinh tú rạng soi.

4cả khối nước phía trên bầu trời.

5vì Người ra lệnh, là hết thảy được tạo thành ;

6ban truyền lề luật, luật đó chẳng hề qua.

7này thuỷ quái dị hình, này tất cả vực sâu,

8ngọn cuồng phong, cấp thừa hành lời Chúa.

9cây ăn trái và đủ loại bá hương,

10loài bò sát và mọi giống chim trời.

11khanh tướng công hầu, thủ lãnh trần gian,

12khắp mặt bô lão, khắp mặt nhi đồng !

13và oai phong vượt quá đất trời.

14Ha-lê-lui-a !
