Psalms 149

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

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

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the people 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 to him with tambourine and harp.

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

4 For YHWH takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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 on them the written judgment. All his faithful ones have this honor. Praise JAH.

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