Psalms 149

1 Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.

Hvalite Gospoda. Zapojte Gospodu novo pesem in njegovo hvalo v skupnosti svetih.

2 Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.

Naj se Izrael veseli v njem, ki ga je naredil, naj bodo sionski otroci radostni v svojem Kralju.

3 Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.

Naj s plesom hvalijo njegovo ime; naj mu prepevajo hvalnice s tamburinom in harfo.

4 For the Lord has pleasure in his people: he gives the poor in spirit a crown of salvation.

Kajti Gospod se veseli v svojem ljudstvu; krotke bo okrasil z rešitvijo duše.

5 Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.

Naj bodo sveti radostni v slavi, naj na glas prepevajo na svojih posteljah.

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;

Naj bodo na njihovih ustih visoke Božje hvalnice in v njihovi roki dvorezen meč,

7 To give the nations the reward of their sins, and the peoples their punishment;

da izvršijo maščevanje nad pogani in kaznovanja nad ljudstvi,

8 To put their kings in chains, and their rulers in bands of iron;

da njihove kralje zvežejo z verigami in njihove plemiče z železnimi okovi,

9 To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.

da nad njimi izvršijo napisano sodbo. To čast imajo vsi sveti. Hvalite Gospoda.
