< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise JAH. Sing to Jehovah a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.
Aleluja! Pjevajte Jahvi pjesmu novu i u zboru svetih hvalu njegovu!
2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the people of Zion be joyful in their King.
Nek' se raduje Izrael Stvoritelju svojem! Kralju svom neka klikću sinovi Siona!
3 Let them praise his name in the dance. Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp.
Neka u kolu hvale ime njegovo, bubnjem i citarom neka ga slave!
4 For Jehovah takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.
Jer Jahve ljubi narod svoj, spasenjem ovjenčava ponizne!
5 Let the faithful ones rejoice in glory. Let them sing for joy on their beds.
Neka se sveti raduju u slavi, neka kliču s ležaja svojih!
6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
Nek' im pohvale Božje budu na ustima, mačevi dvosjekli u rukama
7 To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;
da nad pucima izvrše odmazdu i kaznu nad narodima;
8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
da im kraljeve bace u lance, a odličnike u okove gvozdene;
9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his faithful ones have this honor. Praise JAH.
da na njima izvrše sud davno napisan - nek' bude na čast svim svetima njegovim! Aleluja!
