< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise YAH! Sing to YHWH a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.
Dumisani iNkosi! HIabelelani iNkosi ingoma entsha, indumiso yayo ebandleni labangcwele.
2 Israel rejoices in his Maker, Sons of Zion rejoice in their king.
UIsrayeli kathokoze ngoMenzi wakhe, abantwana beZiyoni kabathabe eNkosini yabo.
3 They praise His Name in a dance, Sing praise to Him with timbrel and harp.
Kabadumise ibizo layo ngokusina, kabayihlabelele indumiso ngesigujana lechacho.
4 For YHWH is pleased with His people, He beautifies the humble with salvation.
Ngoba iNkosi iyathokoza ngabantu bayo; izacecisa abamnene ngosindiso.
5 Saints exult in glory, They sing aloud on their beds.
Abangcwele kabathokoze ngendumiso, kabahlabelele ngenjabulo emibhedeni yabo.
6 The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.
Indumiso zikaNkulunkulu zisemphinjeni wabo, lenkemba esika nhlangothi mbili esandleni sabo,
7 To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.
ukuze benze impindiselo phezu kwabahedeni, izijeziso phezu kwezizwe,
8 To bind their kings with chains, And their honored ones with chains of iron,
ukuze babophe amakhosi azo ngamaketane, lezikhulu zazo ngezibopho zensimbi,
9 To do among them the judgment written, It [is] an honor for all his saints. Praise YAH!
ukuze benze isahlulelo esibhaliweyo phezu kwazo. Loludumo abangcwele bayo bonke balalo. Dumisani iNkosi!
