Salme 149

1 Halleluja! Syng HERREN en ny Sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!

Hallelujah! Sing unto Jehovah a new song; [sing] his praise in the congregation of the godly.

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

Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.

3 de skal prise hans Navn under Dans, lovsynge ham med Pauke og Citer;

Let them praise his name in the dance; let them sing psalms unto him with the tambour and harp.

4 thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.

For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people; he beautifieth the meek with salvation.

5 De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge paa deres Lejer med Fryd,

Let the godly exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.

6 med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Haand

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

To execute vengeance against the nations, [and] punishment among the peoples;

8 for at binde deres Konger med Lænker, deres ædle med Kæder af Jern

To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 og fuldbyrde paa dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja!

To execute upon them the judgment written. This honour have all his saints. Hallelujah!
