Psalms 149

1 Praise ye the Lord. Sing ye vnto the Lord a newe song: let his prayse be heard in the Congregation of Saints.

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

2 Let Israel reioyce in him that made him, and let ye children of Zion reioyce in their King.

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

3 Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.

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

4 For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.

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

5 Let ye Saints be ioyfull with glorie: let them sing loud vpon their beddes.

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

6 Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,

med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Hånd

7 To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:

for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

8 To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,

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

9 That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.

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