Psalms 149
1 Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song: his praise is in the assembly of the saints.
Dumisani iNkosi! HIabelelani iNkosi ingoma entsha, indumiso yayo ebandleni labangcwele.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him; and let the children of Sion exult in their king.
UIsrayeli kathokoze ngoMenzi wakhe, abantwana beZiyoni kabathabe eNkosini yabo.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sings praises to him with timbrel and psaltery.
Kabadumise ibizo layo ngokusina, kabayihlabelele indumiso ngesigujana lechacho.
4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; and will exalt the meek with salvation.
Ngoba iNkosi iyathokoza ngabantu bayo; izacecisa abamnene ngosindiso.
5 The saints shall rejoice in glory; and shall exult on their beds.
Abangcwele kabathokoze ngendumiso, kabahlabelele ngenjabulo emibhedeni yabo.
6 The high praises of God shall be in their throat, and two-edged swords in their hands;
Indumiso zikaNkulunkulu zisemphinjeni wabo, lenkemba esika nhlangothi mbili esandleni sabo,
7 to execute vengeance on the nations, [and] punishments among the peoples;
ukuze benze impindiselo phezu kwabahedeni, izijeziso phezu kwezizwe,
8 to bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron; to execute on them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints.
ukuze babophe amakhosi azo ngamaketane, lezikhulu zazo ngezibopho zensimbi,
ukuze benze isahlulelo esibhaliweyo phezu kwazo. Loludumo abangcwele bayo bonke balalo. Dumisani iNkosi!
