< Psalms 149 >

1 Praise the Lord! Sing a new song to the Lord! Praise him wherever his faithful followers gather!
Tamandani Yehova. Imbirani Yehova nyimbo yatsopano, matamando ake mu msonkhano wa oyera mtima.
2 Let Israel celebrate their Creator; let the people of Zion be happy in their King.
Israeli asangalale mwa mlengi wake; anthu a ku Ziyoni akondwere mwa Mfumu yawo.
3 Praise his nature with dancing; sing praises to him, accompanied by tambourine and harp.
Atamande dzina lake povina ndi kuyimbira Iye nyimbo ndi tambolini ndi pangwe.
4 For the Lord enjoys his people; he honors the oppressed with salvation.
Pakuti Yehova amakondwera ndi anthu ake; Iye amaveka chipulumutso odzichepetsa.
5 Let the faithful celebrate how he honors them; let them sing happily even from their beds.
Oyera mtima asangalale mu ulemu wake ndi kuyimba mwachimwemwe pa mabedi awo.
6 May their praises of God always be on their lips, a double-edged sword in their hands,
Matamando a Mulungu akhale pakamwa pawo, ndi lupanga lakuthwa konsekonse mʼmanja mwawo,
7 ready to take revenge on the nations, to punish the foreign peoples,
kubwezera chilango anthu a mitundu ina, ndi kulanga anthu a mitundu yonse,
8 to imprison their kings in shackles and their leaders in iron chains,
kumanga mafumu awo ndi zingwe, anthu awo otchuka ndi unyolo wachitsulo,
9 to impose the judgment decreed against them. This is an honor for all his faithful followers. Praise the Lord!
kuchita zimene zinalembedwa zotsutsana nawo Uwu ndi ulemerero wa oyera mtima ake onse. Tamandani Yehova.
