Psalms 150

Laudate Dominum in sanctis.

An exhortation to praise God with all sorts of instruments.

1Alleluia.

Praise the Lord in his holy places. Praise him in the firmament of his power.
2Praise him for his virtues. Praise him according to the multitude of his greatness.
150:2The word ‘virtutibus’ or ‘virtutis’ is often translated as ‘power.’ However, it has a broader meaning in Latin that can mean ‘power,’ or ‘virtue,’ or ‘excellence.’(Conte)

3Praise him with the sound of the trumpet.
Praise him with psaltery and stringed instrument.
4Praise him with timbrel and choir.
Praise him with strings and organ.
5Praise him with sweet-sounding cymbals.
Praise him with cymbals of jubilation.
6Let every spirit praise the Lord. Alleluia.
