Psalms 149

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

Louwe SENYÈ a! Chante a SENYÈ a yon chan tounèf, avèk lwanj Li nan asanble fidèl Li yo.

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

Kite Israël fè kè kontan nan Kreyatè li a. Kite fis a Sion yo rejwi nan Wa yo a.

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

Kite yo louwe non Li avèk dans! Kite yo chante lwanj a Li avèk tanbouren ak gita.

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

Paske SENYÈ a pran plezi nan pèp Li a. Li va anbeli enb yo avèk sali Li.

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

Kite fidèl yo leve wo nan glwa. Kite yo chante ak lajwa sou kabann yo.

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

Ke gwo lwanj a Bondye yo kapab nan bouch yo, ak yon nepe file de bò nan men yo,

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

pou fè vanjans sou nasyon yo, avèk pinisyon sou lòt pèp yo;

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

pou mare wa yo ak chenn, ak moun pwisan yo nan gwo chenn an fè,

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

pou egzekite sou yo jijman ki te ekri a. Sa se lonè de tout fidèl Li yo. Louwe SENYÈ a!
