Psalms 149

1 Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints.

Haleluya! Nyanyikanlah bagi TUHAN nyanyian baru! Pujilah Dia dalam jemaah orang-orang saleh.

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

Biarlah Israel bersukacita atas Yang menjadikannya, biarlah bani Sion bersorak-sorak atas raja mereka!

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

Biarlah mereka memuji-muji nama-Nya dengan tari-tarian, biarlah mereka bermazmur kepada-Nya dengan rebana dan kecapi!

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

Sebab TUHAN berkenan kepada umat-Nya, Ia memahkotai orang-orang yang rendah hati dengan keselamatan.

5 Let the saints rejoice in honour. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

Biarlah orang-orang saleh beria-ria dalam kemuliaan, biarlah mereka bersorak-sorai di atas tempat tidur mereka!

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

Biarlah pujian pengagungan Allah ada dalam kerongkongan mereka, dan pedang bermata dua di tangan mereka,

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

untuk melakukan pembalasan terhadap bangsa-bangsa, penyiksaan-penyiksaan terhadap suku-suku bangsa,

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

untuk membelenggu raja-raja mereka dengan rantai, dan orang-orang mereka yang mulia dengan tali-tali besi,

9 to execute on them the written judgement. All his saints have this honour. Praise the LORD!

untuk melaksanakan terhadap mereka hukuman seperti yang tertulis. Itulah semarak bagi semua orang yang dikasihi-Nya. Haleluya!
