< Salme 149 >
1 Halleluja! Syng HERREN en ny Sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!
Praise Yah. Sing unto Yhwh a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.
2 Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,
Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children 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 praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
4 thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.
For Yhwh taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
5 De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge paa deres Lejer med Fryd,
Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud 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 twoedged sword in their hand;
7 for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,
To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;
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. Praise ye Yhwh.
