Psalms 149

1 Praise ye Jehovah. Sing to Jehovah a new song, and his praise in the assembly of the sanctified.

E HALELU aku oukou ia Iehova, E oli aku ia Iehova, i ke mele hou, I kona mau halelu hoi ma ke anaina o ka poe haipule.

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made him. Let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.

E lealea o ka Iseraela i ka mea nana ia i hana; E hauoli hoi na keiki a Ziona i ko lakou alii.

3 Let them praise his name in the dance. Let them sing praises to him with timbrel and harp.

E halelu aku lakou i kona inoa ma ka haa ana; E hoolea aku lakou ia ia ma ka pahukani, a me ka lira.

4 For Jehovah takes pleasure in his people. He will beautify the meek with salvation.

No ka mea, ua lealea o Ivhova i kona poe kanaka; E hoonani mai no oia ia lakou i ke ola.

5 Let the sanctified exult in glory. Let them sing for joy upon their beds.

E hooho olioli no ka poe haipule maloko o ka nani: E hauoli no lakou ma ko lakou wahi moe.

6 The high praises of God are in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand

Ma ko lakou waha, ka hapai i ke Akua, A ma ko lakou lima hoi, he pahikaua maka lua;

7 to execute vengeance upon the nations, and punishments upon the peoples,

E hana me ka hoopai aku i ko na aina e, A me ka paipai aku i na kanaka:

8 to bind their kings with chains, and their ranking men with fetters of iron,

E hoopaa i na'lii i na kaula, A me ko lakou kaukaualii, i na kupee hao.

9 to execute upon them the judgment written. All his sanctified have this honor. Praise ye Jehovah.

E hana aku ia lakou i ka hoopai i palapalaia; Oia ka nani o kona poe haipule a pau. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.
