詩篇 149

1 ヱホバをほめたたへよ ヱホバに對ひてあたらしき歌をうたへ 聖徒のつどひにてヱホバの頌美をうたへ

Praise the Lord! Sing a new song to the Lord! Praise him wherever his faithful followers gather!

2 イスラエルはおのれを造りたまひしものをよろこび シオンの子輩は己が王のゆゑによりて樂しむべし

Let Israel celebrate their Creator; let the people of Zion be happy in their King.

3 かれらをどりつつその聖名をほめたたへ 琴鼓にてヱホバをほめうたべし

Praise his nature with dancing; sing praises to him, accompanied by tambourine and harp.

4 ヱホバはおのが民をよろこび 救にて柔和なるものを美しくしたまへばなり

For the Lord enjoys his people; he honors the oppressed with salvation.

5 聖徒はえいくわうの故によりてよろこび その寝牀にてよろこびうたふべし

Let the faithful celebrate how he honors them; let them sing happily even from their beds.

6 その口に神をほむるうたあり その手にもろはの劍あり

May their praises of God always be on their lips, a double-edged sword in their hands,

7 こはもろもろの國に仇をかへし もろもろの民をつみなひ

ready to take revenge on the nations, to punish the foreign peoples,

8 かれらの王たちを鏈にてかれらの貴人をくろかねの械にていましめ

to imprison their kings in shackles and their leaders in iron chains,

9 録したる審判をかれらに行ふべきためなり 斯るほまれはそのもろもろの聖徒にあり ヱホバをほめたたへよ

to impose the judgment decreed against them. This is an honor for all his faithful followers. Praise the Lord!
