Psalms 149

1 Praise all of you the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.

Pujilah TUHAN! Nyanyikanlah lagu baru bagi TUHAN, pujilah Dia dalam kumpulan umat-Nya!

2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

Bersukacitalah, hai Israel karena Penciptamu; bergembiralah, hai penduduk Sion karena Rajamu!

3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

Pujilah nama-Nya dengan tari-tarian, pujilah Dia dengan kecapi dan rebana!

4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

TUHAN berkenan kepada umat-Nya; Ia memberi kemenangan kepada orang yang rendah hati.

5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

Biarlah umat Allah bersukaria karena kejayaan-Nya, dan menyanyi gembira sepanjang malam.

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

Biarlah mereka memuji Allah dengan suara lantang, sambil memegang pedang terasah

7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

untuk membalas bangsa-bangsa, dan menghukum suku-suku bangsa;

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

untuk membelenggu raja-raja, dan merantai para penguasa mereka;

9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise all of you the LORD.

untuk menghukum bangsa-bangsa atas perintah Allah. Itulah kemenangan umat yang dikasihi-Nya. Pujilah TUHAN!
