Psalms 149

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

Msifuni Yahwe. Mwimbieni Yahwe wimbo mpya; imbeni sifa zake katika kusanyiko la waaminifu.

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the people of Zion be joyful in their King.

Israeli ishangilie katika yeye aliye iumba; watu wa Sayuni na washangilie katika mfalme wao.

3 Let them praise his name in the dance. Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp.

Nao walisifu jina lake kwa kucheza; na wamuimbie sifa yeye kwa ngoma na kinubi.

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

Kwa kuwa Yahwe hupata furaha katika watu wake; huwapa utukufu wanyeyekevu kwa wokovu.

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

Wacha Mungu wauchangilie ushindi; nao waimbe kwa furaha vitandani mwao.

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

Sifa za Mungu na ziwe vinywani mwao na panga mbili zenye makali mkononi mwao

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

kutekeleza kisasi juu ya mataifa na matendo ya adhabu juu ya watu.

8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

Nao watawafunga wafalme wao kwa minyororo na wakuu wao kwa pingu za chuma. Watatekeleza hukumu ambayo imeandikwa.

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

Hii itakuwa ni heshima kwa ajili ya watakatifu wake wote. Msifuni Yahwe.
