< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise you the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.
Halleluja! Syng HERREN en ny Sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises to him with the tambourine and harp.
de skal prise hans Navn under Dans, lovsynge ham med Pauke og Citer;
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.
5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud on their beds.
De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge paa deres Lejer med Fryd,
6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Haand
7 To execute vengeance on the heathen, and punishments on the people;
for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,
8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
for at binde deres Konger med Lænker, deres ædle med Kæder af Jern
9 To execute on them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints. Praise you the LORD.
og fuldbyrde paa dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja!
