< Psalms 149 >
1 Hallelujah. Sing unto the Lord a new song, his praise in the congregation of the pious.
Aleluja! Pojte Gospodu pesem novo; hvalo njegovo v zboru njih, katere sprejema prijazno.
2 Let Israel rejoice in his Maker: let the children of Zion exult in their King.
Veséli se Izrael v njem, ki ga je ustvaril; sinovi Sijonski naj se radujejo v kralji svojem.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: with the timbrel and harp let them sing praises unto him.
Hvalijo naj ime njegovo s piščaljo; z bobnom in strunami naj mu prepevajo.
4 For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people; he will adorn the meek with salvation.
Ker milosten je Gospod z ljudstvom svojim; krotke diči z blaginjo.
5 Let the pious be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their couches.
Radujejo se naj v slavi prijazno sprejeti; pojó naj na ležiščih svojih,
6 The exalted praises of God are in their mouth, and a two-edged sword is in their hand;
Hvalo povišujočo Boga mogočnega v grlu svojem, in meč dvorezni v roki svoji.
7 To execute vengeance on the nations, and chastisements on the people:
Da se mašujejo nad narodi, ljudstva pokoré.
8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron:
Da zvežejo z verigami njih kralje; in njih plemenitnike z vezmi železnimi.
9 To execute upon them the judgment [which is] written: this is an honor for all his pious servants. Hallelujah.
Da nad njimi spolnijo pisano pravico; kar je čast vsem onim, katere sprejema prijazno. Aleluja!
