Psalms 149

1 Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.

Halleluja! syng Herren en ny sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the people 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 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 crowns the humble with salvation.

thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.

5 Let the faithful ones rejoice in glory. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge på deres Lejer med Fryd,

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

med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Hånd

7 To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

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 written judgment. All his faithful ones have this honor. Praise the LORD.

og fuldbyrde på dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja! -
