Salme 149

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

Praise YAH! Sing to YHWH a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.

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

Israel rejoices in his Maker, Sons of Zion rejoice in their king.

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

They praise His Name in a dance, Sing praise to Him with timbrel and harp.

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

For YHWH is pleased with His people, He beautifies the humble with salvation.

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

Saints exult in glory, They sing aloud on their beds.

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

The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.

7 for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

To do vengeance among nations, Punishments 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 honored ones with chains of iron,

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

To do among them the judgment written, It [is] an honor for all his saints. Praise YAH!
