Psalms 149

1 Praise Yahweh! Sing a new song to Yahweh, praise him whenever [his] faithful [people] gather together!

Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye! Werneuru Jehova Nyasaye wer manyien, kendo dendeuru e chokruok mar jomaler.

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]!

Jo-Israel mondo obed mamor gi jachwechgi; ee, jo-Sayun mondo obed mamor gi Ruodhgi.

3 Praise Yahweh by dancing, by beating/playing tambourines, and by playing harps to praise him!

Onego gi pak nyinge gi miel kendo giwerne mamit ka gigoyo oyieke gi nyatiti.

4 Yahweh is pleased with his people; he honors humble [people] by helping them to defeat [their enemies].

Nimar chuny Jehova Nyasaye mor gi joge kendo osidho joma obolore gi warruok.

5 God’s people should rejoice because they have won battles and they should sing joyfully all during the night!

Jomaler mondo oil kamiye duongʼ kendo giwer gimor ka gibet e kitandagi.

6 They [MTY] should shout loudly to praise God; but [they should also hold] sharp swords in their hands,

Onego pak mar Nyasaye obed e dhogi kendo gitingʼ ligangla ma dhoge ariyo e lwetgi,

7 [ready to use them] to defeat the [soldiers of] nations [that do not worship God], and to punish the people [of those nations],

mondo gichulgo kuor ni ogendini kendo gikum ogendini mamoko,

8 and to fasten the arms and legs of their kings and other leaders with iron chains,

kendo gitwe ruodhigi gi nyoroche, kod jotendgi gi opingo mag chuma,

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!

ka gichopo kum mane ondik kuomgi chon. Ma e duongʼ mar joge maler duto. Pakuru Jehova Nyasaye!
