< Psalms 149 >
1 Praise Yahweh! Sing a new song to Yahweh, praise him whenever [his] faithful [people] gather together!
Aleluja! Pjevajte Jahvi pjesmu novu i u zboru svetih hvalu njegovu!
2 [You] Israeli people, be glad because of [what God], who created you, [has done for you]! You people of Jerusalem, rejoice because of [what God] your king [has done for you]!
Nek' se raduje Izrael Stvoritelju svojem! Kralju svom neka klikću sinovi Siona!
3 Praise Yahweh by dancing, by beating/playing tambourines, and by playing harps to praise him!
Neka u kolu hvale ime njegovo, bubnjem i citarom neka ga slave!
4 Yahweh is pleased with his people; he honors humble [people] by helping them to defeat [their enemies].
Jer Jahve ljubi narod svoj, spasenjem ovjenčava ponizne!
5 God’s people should rejoice because they have won battles and they should sing joyfully all during the night!
Neka se sveti raduju u slavi, neka kliču s ležaja svojih!
6 They [MTY] should shout loudly to praise God; but [they should also hold] sharp swords in their hands,
Nek' im pohvale Božje budu na ustima, mačevi dvosjekli u rukama
7 [ready to use them] to defeat the [soldiers of] nations [that do not worship God], and to punish the people [of those nations],
da nad pucima izvrše odmazdu i kaznu nad narodima;
8 and to fasten the arms and legs of their kings and other leaders with iron chains,
da im kraljeve bace u lance, a odličnike u okove gvozdene;
9 to judge [and punish] the people of those nations, like [God] wrote/declared [should be done]. It is (a privilege/an honor) for God’s faithful people to do that! Praise Yahweh!
da na njima izvrše sud davno napisan - nek' bude na čast svim svetima njegovim! Aleluja!
