Psalms 149

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

Aleluja! Pojte Gospodu pesem novo; hvalo njegovo v zboru njih, katere sprejema prijazno.

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]!

Veséli se Izrael v njem, ki ga je ustvaril; sinovi Sijonski naj se radujejo v kralji svojem.

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

Hvalijo naj ime njegovo s piščaljo; z bobnom in strunami naj mu prepevajo.

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

Ker milosten je Gospod z ljudstvom svojim; krotke diči z blaginjo.

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

Radujejo se naj v slavi prijazno sprejeti; pojó naj na ležiščih svojih,

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

Hvalo povišujočo Boga mogočnega v grlu svojem, in meč dvorezni v roki svoji.

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 se mašujejo nad narodi, ljudstva pokoré.

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

Da zvežejo z verigami njih kralje; in njih plemenitnike z vezmi železnimi.

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 nad njimi spolnijo pisano pravico; kar je čast vsem onim, katere sprejema prijazno. Aleluja!
