Salme 149

1 Halleluja! syng Herren en ny sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!

Hallelujah. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and His praise in the assembly of the saints.

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

Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; 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 the LORD taketh pleasure in His people; He adorneth the humble with salvation.

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

Let the saints exult in glory; let them sing for joy upon their beds.

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

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 upon the nations, and chastisements upon 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 på dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja! -

To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.
