Psalms 149

1 Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song. His praise is in the Church of the saints.

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

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them, and let the sons of Zion exult in their king.

Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,

3 Let them praise his name in chorus. Let them sing psalms to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.

de skal prise hans Navn under Dans, lovsynge ham med Pauke og Citer;

4 For the Lord is well pleased with his people, and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.

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

5 The saints will exult in glory. They will rejoice upon their couches.

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

6 The exultations of God will be in their throat, and two-edged swords will be in their hands:

med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Hånd

7 to obtain vindication among the nations, chastisements among the peoples,

for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

8 to bind their kings with shackles and their nobles with manacles of iron,

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

9 to obtain judgment over them, as it has been written. This is glory for all his saints. Alleluia.

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