詩篇 149

1 你們要讚美耶和華！ 向耶和華唱新歌， 在聖民的會中讚美他！

Hallelujah. Sing to the Lord a new song, sound his praise where the faithful are gathered.

2 願以色列因造他的主歡喜！ 願錫安的民因他們的王快樂！

Let Israel rejoice in its maker, sons of Zion exult in their king.

3 願他們跳舞讚美他的名， 擊鼓彈琴歌頌他！

Let them praise his name in the dance, making music with lyre and with timbrel.

4 因為耶和華喜愛他的百姓； 他要用救恩當作謙卑人的妝飾。

For the Lord delights in his people, adorning the humble with victory.

5 願聖民因所得的榮耀高興！ 願他們在床上歡呼！

Let the faithful exult and extol him with glad ringing cries all night long.

6 願他們口中稱讚上帝為高， 手裏有兩刃的刀，

High praises of God in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 為要報復列邦， 刑罰萬民。

on the heathen to execute vengeance, and chastisement sore on the nations,

8 要用鍊子捆他們的君王， 用鐵鐐鎖他們的大臣；

binding their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,

9 要在他們身上施行所記錄的審判。 他的聖民都有這榮耀。 你們要讚美耶和華！

to execute on them the doom that is written. This is the glory of all his faithful. Hallelujah.
