Psalms 149

1 Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints.

Halleluja. Sjunger Herranom en ny viso; de heligas församling skall lofva honom.

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

Israel glädje sig af den honom gjort hafver; Zions barn vare glade öfver sin Konung.

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

De skola lofva hans Namn i dans; med trummor och harpor skola de spela honom.

4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.

Ty Herren hafver ett behag till sitt folk; han hjelper den elända härliga.

5 Let the saints rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

De helige skola glade vara, och prisa, och lofva i deras säng;

6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand,

Deras mun skall upphöja Gud; och skola hafva skarp svärd i sina händer;

7 to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

Att de skola hämnas ibland Hedningarna, och straffa ibland folken;

8 to bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

Till att binda deras Konungar med kedjor, och deras ädlingar med jernfjettrar;

9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Praise the LORD!

Att de skola göra dem den rätt, derom skrifvet står: Denna ärona skola alle hans heliga hafva. Halleluja.
