Psalmorum 149

1 Alleluia. Cantate Domino canticum novum: laus eius in ecclesia sanctorum.

Praise ye Jehovah. Sing unto Jehovah a new song, And his praise in the assembly of the saints.

2 Laetetur Israel in eo, qui fecit eum: et filiae Sion exultent in rege suo.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

3 Laudent nomen eius in choro: in tympano, et psalterio psallant ei:

Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp.

4 Quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo: et exaltavit mansuetos in salutem.

For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek with salvation.

5 Exultabunt sancti in gloria: laetabuntur in cubilibus suis.

Let the saints exult in glory: Let them sing for joy upon their beds.

6 Exultationes Dei in gutture eorum: et gladii ancipites in manibus eorum:

[Let] the high praises of God [be] in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand;

7 Ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus: increpationes in populis.

To execute vengeance upon the nations, And punishments upon the peoples;

8 Ad alligandos reges eorum in compedibus: et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis.

To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 Ut faciant in eis iudicium conscriptum: gloria haec est omnibus sanctis eius. Alleluia.

To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah.
