Psalms 150:5

Praise him upon the loud cymbals: praise him upon the clashing cymbals.
Read Chapter 150

George Leo Haydock

AD 1849
Spirit. Wind instrument, (Menochius) or man, who is bound to praise God, even more than the angels, as Christ has assumed his nature, and will bring him to sing with them Alleluia. (Worthington) Let "all that breathes "praise, (Berthier) including every living creature, (Calmet) as well as the celestial spirits. (Haydock) Alleluia is not in Septuagint, Syriac But it is in the Hebrew, and no word could answer better for a conclusion of the psalms, which are almost wholly employed in the divine praises. This ought to be our occupation both on earth, and in heaven. Amen. (Calmet) Pope Damasus, A.D. 380, ordered the Glory, to be added to each of the psalms, as it has been since observed. (Worthington) An apocryphal psalm, concerning David encountering Goliath, occurs in many Greek and Latin copies; but it is of no authority. (Calmet)

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation - 2 Peter 1:20
