Psalms 149

1 Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song. His praise is in the Church of the saints.

Mou fakamālō kia Sihova. Hiva kia Sihova ʻaki ʻae hiva foʻou, mo e fakamālō kiate ia ʻi he fakataha ʻoe kakai māʻoniʻoni.

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them, and let the sons of Zion exult in their king.

Ke fiefia ʻa ʻIsileli ʻiate ia naʻa ne ngaohi ia: ke fiefia ʻae fānau ʻa Saione ʻi honau Tuʻi.

3 Let them praise his name in chorus. Let them sing psalms to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.

Kenau fakamālō ki hono huafa ʻi he meʻe: kenau hiva fakamālō kiate ia ʻaki ʻae lali iiki mo e haʻape.

4 For the Lord is well pleased with his people, and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.

He ʻoku fiefia ʻa Sihova ʻi hono kakai te ne teuteu ʻae angamalū ʻaki ʻae fakamoʻui.

5 The saints will exult in glory. They will rejoice upon their couches.

Ke fiefia ʻae kakai māʻoniʻoni ʻi he nāunau: kenau hiva kalanga, ʻi honau ngaahi mohenga.

6 The exultations of God will be in their throat, and two-edged swords will be in their hands:

Ke ʻi honau ngutu ʻae fakamālō lahi ki he ʻOtua, pea ʻi honau nima ʻae heletā ʻoku fakatoumata;

7 to obtain vindication among the nations, chastisements among the peoples,

Ke ʻatu ʻae totongi ki he hiteni, mo e ngaahi tautea ki he kakai:

8 to bind their kings with shackles and their nobles with manacles of iron,

Ke haʻisia honau ngaahi tuʻi ʻaki ʻae ukamea fihifihi, mo honau houʻeiki ʻaki ʻae ngaahi haʻi ukamea;

9 to obtain judgment over them, as it has been written. This is glory for all his saints. Alleluia.

Ke fai kiate kinautolu ʻae fakamaau kuo tohi: kuo pehē ʻae hakeakiʻi ʻo ʻene kakai māʻoniʻoni kotoa pē. Mou fakamālō kia Sihova.
