< Psalmi 149 >
1 Aleluja! Pjevajte Jahvi pjesmu novu i u zboru svetih hvalu njegovu!
Hallelujah. Sing to the Lord a new song, sound his praise where the faithful are gathered.
2 Nek' se raduje Izrael Stvoritelju svojem! Kralju svom neka klikću sinovi Siona!
Let Israel rejoice in its maker, sons of Zion exult in their king.
3 Neka u kolu hvale ime njegovo, bubnjem i citarom neka ga slave!
Let them praise his name in the dance, making music with lyre and with timbrel.
4 Jer Jahve ljubi narod svoj, spasenjem ovjenčava ponizne!
For the Lord delights in his people, adorning the humble with victory.
5 Neka se sveti raduju u slavi, neka kliču s ležaja svojih!
Let the faithful exult and extol him with glad ringing cries all night long.
6 Nek' im pohvale Božje budu na ustima, mačevi dvosjekli u rukama
High praises of God in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:
7 da nad pucima izvrše odmazdu i kaznu nad narodima;
on the heathen to execute vengeance, and chastisement sore on the nations,
8 da im kraljeve bace u lance, a odličnike u okove gvozdene;
binding their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,
9 da na njima izvrše sud davno napisan - nek' bude na čast svim svetima njegovim! Aleluja!
to execute on them the doom that is written. This is the glory of all his faithful. Hallelujah.
