Psalms 149

1 Praise ye the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.

Halleluja. Sjunger Herranom en ny viso; de heligas församling skall lofva honom.

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

Israel glädje sig af den honom gjort hafver; Zions barn vare glade öfver sin Konung.

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

De skola lofva hans Namn i dans; med trummor och harpor skola de spela honom.

4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

Ty Herren hafver ett behag till sitt folk; han hjelper den elända härliga.

5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

De helige skola glade vara, och prisa, och lofva i deras säng;

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand;

Deras mun skall upphöja Gud; och skola hafva skarp svärd i sina händer;

7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

Att de skola hämnas ibland Hedningarna, och straffa ibland folken;

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

Till att binda deras Konungar med kedjor, och deras ädlingar med jernfjettrar;

9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.

Att de skola göra dem den rätt, derom skrifvet står: Denna ärona skola alle hans heliga hafva. Halleluja.
