< Psalms 149 >
1 Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song: his praise is in the assembly of the saints.
Halleluja! Syng HERREN en ny Sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him; and let the children of Sion exult in their king.
Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sings praises to him with timbrel and lute.
de skal prise hans Navn under Dans, lovsynge ham med Pauke og Citer;
4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; and will exalt the meek with salvation.
thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.
5 The saints shall rejoice in glory; and shall exult on their beds.
De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge paa deres Lejer med Fryd,
6 The high praises of God shall be in their throat, and two-edged swords in their hands;
med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Haand
7 to execute vengeance on the nations, [and] punishments amongst the peoples;
for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,
8 to bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron; to execute on them the judgement written: this honour have all his saints.
for at binde deres Konger med Lænker, deres ædle med Kæder af Jern
og fuldbyrde paa dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja!
