Psalmi 149

1 Aleluja! Pjevajte Jahvi pjesmu novu i u zboru svetih hvalu njegovu!

Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the holy ones.

2 Nek' se raduje Izrael Stvoritelju svojem! Kralju svom neka klikću sinovi Siona!

Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

3 Neka u kolu hvale ime njegovo, bubnjem i citarom neka ga slave!

Let them praise his name in the dance! Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp!

4 Jer Jahve ljubi narod svoj, spasenjem ovjenčava ponizne!

For the LORD takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation [yeshu`ah].

5 Neka se sveti raduju u slavi, neka kliču s ležaja svojih!

Let the holy ones rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

6 Nek' im pohvale Božje budu na ustima, mačevi dvosjekli u rukama

May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand,

7 da nad pucima izvrše odmazdu i kaznu nad narodima;

to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

8 da im kraljeve bace u lance, a odličnike u okove gvozdene;

to bind 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 written judgment. All his holy ones have this honor. Praise the LORD!
