Psalms 149

1 Praise the Lord! Sing a new song to the Lord! Praise him wherever his faithful followers gather!

BOEIPA te thangthen uh. Hlangcim hlangping khuiah amah koehnah laa thai te BOEIPA taengah sa uh.

2 Let Israel celebrate their Creator; let the people of Zion be happy in their King.

Israel loh amah aka saii dongah a kohoe saeh. Zion ca rhoek loh a manghai dongah omngaih uh saeh.

3 Praise his nature with dancing; sing praises to him, accompanied by tambourine and harp.

A ming te lamnah neh, kamrhing neh thangthen uh saeh lamtah, amah te rhotoeng neh tingtoeng saeh.

4 For the Lord enjoys his people; he honors the oppressed with salvation.

BOEIPA tah a pilnam soah a ngaingaih tih kodo rhoek te khangnah neh a cam.

5 Let the faithful celebrate how he honors them; let them sing happily even from their beds.

Hlangcim rhoek thangpomnah dongah sundaep uh saeh lamtah a thingkong dongah tamhoe uh saeh.

6 May their praises of God always be on their lips, a double-edged sword in their hands,

A olrhong dongah Pathen koehnah neh a kut dongah cunghang ha pom uh saeh.

7 ready to take revenge on the nations, to punish the foreign peoples,

Namtom soah tawnlohnah, namtu pawt te toelthamnah saii saeh.

8 to imprison their kings in shackles and their leaders in iron chains,

A manghai rhoek te hmaipom neh a thangpom rhoek te thi hlong neh khoh uh saeh.

9 to impose the judgment decreed against them. This is an honor for all his faithful followers. Praise the Lord!

A taengah laitloeknah saii hamla a hlangcim boeih kah a rhuepomnah he daek pah. BOEIPA te thangthen uh.
