Psalms 149

1 Hallelujah! Sing unto Jehovah a new song; [sing] his praise in the congregation of the godly.

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

2 Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the sons 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 psalms unto him with the tambour and harp.

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

4 For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people; he beautifieth the meek with salvation.

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

5 Let the godly exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.

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

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, 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 against the nations, [and] punishment among 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 upon them the judgment written. This honour have all his saints. Hallelujah!

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