< Salme 149 >
1 Synger Herren en ny Sang, hans Lovsang i de helliges Menighed!
Praise YAH! Sing to YHWH a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.
2 Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, Zions Børn fryde sig over deres Konge!
Israel rejoices in his Maker, Sons of Zion rejoice in their king.
3 De skulle love hans Navn med Dans, de skulle lovsynge ham til Tromme og Harpe.
They praise His Name in a dance, Sing praise to Him with timbrel and harp.
4 Thi Herren har Behagelighed til sit Folk, han pryder de sagtmodige med Frelse.
For YHWH is pleased with His people, He beautifies the humble with salvation.
5 De hellige skulle glæde sig i Herlighed, de skulle synge med Fryd paa deres Leje.
Saints exult in glory, They sing aloud on their beds.
6 De skulle ophøje Gud med deres Strube, og der skal være et tveægget Sværd i deres Haand
The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.
7 for at øve Hævn paa Hedningerne og Straf paa Folkeslægterne;
To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.
8 for at binde deres Konger med Lænker og deres Hædersmænd med Jernbolte;
To bind their kings with chains, And their honored ones with chains of iron,
9 for at fuldbyrde paa dem den Dom, som staar skreven! Det er Æren for alle hans hellige. Halleluja!
To do among them the judgment written, It [is] an honor for all his saints. Praise YAH!
