< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the assembly of the saints.
E HALELU aku oukou ia Iehova, E oli aku ia Iehova, i ke mele hou, I kona mau halelu hoi ma ke anaina o ka poe haipule.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
E lealea o ka Iseraela i ka mea nana ia i hana; E hauoli hoi na keiki a Ziona i ko lakou alii.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
E halelu aku lakou i kona inoa ma ka haa ana; E hoolea aku lakou ia ia ma ka pahukani, a me ka lira.
4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
No ka mea, ua lealea o Ivhova i kona poe kanaka; E hoonani mai no oia ia lakou i ke ola.
5 Let the saints exult in glory: let them sing for joy upon their beds.
E hooho olioli no ka poe haipule maloko o ka nani: E hauoli no lakou ma ko lakou wahi moe.
6 [Let] the high praises of God [be] in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
Ma ko lakou waha, ka hapai i ke Akua, A ma ko lakou lima hoi, he pahikaua maka lua;
7 To execute vengeance upon the nations, and punishments upon the peoples;
E hana me ka hoopai aku i ko na aina e, A me ka paipai aku i na kanaka:
8 To bind their king’s with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
E hoopaa i na'lii i na kaula, A me ko lakou kaukaualii, i na kupee hao.
9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
E hana aku ia lakou i ka hoopai i palapalaia; Oia ka nani o kona poe haipule a pau. E halelu aku oukou ia Iehova.
