Salme 149

1 Synger Herren en ny Sang, hans Lovsang i de helliges Menighed!

Praise ye Yah, Sing to Yahweh a song that is new, his praise in the convocation of the men of lovingkindness.

2 Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, Zions Børn fryde sig over deres Konge!

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;

3 De skulle love hans Navn med Dans, de skulle lovsynge ham til Tromme og Harpe.

Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.

4 Thi Herren har Behagelighed til sit Folk, han pryder de sagtmodige med Frelse.

For Yahweh is taking pleasure in his people, He will beautify humbled ones with victory.

5 De hellige skulle glæde sig i Herlighed, de skulle synge med Fryd paa deres Leje.

Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:

6 De skulle ophøje Gud med deres Strube, og der skal være et tveægget Sværd i deres Haand

The high songs of GOD be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 for at øve Hævn paa Hedningerne og Straf paa Folkeslægterne;

To execute an avenging among the nations, rebukes among the peoples:

8 for at binde deres Konger med Lænker og deres Hædersmænd med Jernbolte;

To bind their kings with fetters, and their honoured ones with iron bands:

9 for at fuldbyrde paa dem den Dom, som staar skreven! Det er Æren for alle hans hellige. Halleluja!

To execute upon them the sentence written, An honour, shall it be to all his men of lovingkindness. Praise ye Yah!
