Psalms 149

1 Praise Yahweh. Sing to Yahweh a new song; sing his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.

Halleluja! syng Herren en ny sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!

2 Let Israel rejoice in the one who made them; let the people of Zion rejoice in their king.

Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,

3 Let them praise his name with dancing; let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp.

de skal prise hans Navn under Dans, lovsynge ham med Pauke og Citer;

4 For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people; he glorifies the humble with salvation.

thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.

5 Let the godly rejoice in victory; let them sing for joy on their beds.

De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge på deres Lejer med Fryd,

6 May the praises of God be in their mouths and a two-edged sword in their hand

med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Hånd

7 to execute vengeance on the nations and acts of punishment on the peoples.

for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

8 They will bind their kings with chains and their nobles with iron shackles.

for at binde deres Konger med Lænker, deres ædle med Kæder af Jern

9 They will execute the judgment that is written. This will be an honor for all his faithful ones. Praise Yahweh.

og fuldbyrde på dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja! -
