Psalms 149

1 Hallelujah. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and His praise in the assembly of the saints.

Dumisani uThixo. Hlabelelani uThixo ingoma entsha, indumiso yakhe ebandleni labathembekileyo.

2 Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

Akuthi u-Israyeli athokoze ngoMenzi wakhe; akuthi abantu baseZiyoni bajabule ngeNkosi yabo.

3 Let them praise His name in the dance; let them sing praises unto Him with the timbrel and harp.

Kabadumise ibizo lakhe ngokusina, batshaye amagedla lamachacho.

4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in His people; He adorneth the humble with salvation.

Ngoba uThixo uyathokoza ngabantu bakhe; abathobekileyo ubapha umqhele wensindiso.

5 Let the saints exult in glory; let them sing for joy upon their beds.

Akuthi abathembekileyo bathokoze ngale inhlonipho, bahlabele ngentokozo besemibhedeni yabo.

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

Sengathi indumiso kaNkulunkulu ingaba semilonyeni yabo lenkemba esika nxazonke ibe sezandleni zabo,

7 To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements upon the peoples;

ukuthi benze impindiselo phezu kwezizwe lesijeziso phezu kwabantu,

8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

babophe amakhosi azo ngentambo lezikhulu zabo ngezibopho zensimbi,

9 To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.

ukugcwalisa kubo isigwebo abasibhalelwayo. Lokhu kuyinkazimulo yabathembekileyo bakhe bonke. Dumisani uThixo.
