Salme 149

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

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, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult 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, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.

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

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

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

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

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

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

7 for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

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

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

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

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

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