Psalmorum 149

1 alleluia cantate Domino canticum novum laus eius in ecclesia sanctorum

Praise ye Yah, Sing to Yahweh a song that is new, his praise in the convocation of the men of lovingkindness.

2 laetetur Israhel in eo qui fecit eum et filii Sion exultent in rege suo

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;

3 laudent nomen eius in choro in tympano et psalterio psallant ei

Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.

4 quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo et exaltabit mansuetos in salute

For Yahweh is taking pleasure in his people, He will beautify humbled ones with victory.

5 exultabunt sancti in gloria laetabuntur in cubilibus suis

Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:

6 exaltationes Dei in gutture eorum et gladii ancipites in manibus eorum

The high songs of GOD be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus increpationes in populis

To execute an avenging among the nations, rebukes among the peoples:

8 ad alligandos reges eorum in conpedibus et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis

To bind their kings with fetters, and their honoured ones with iron bands:

9 ut faciant in eis iudicium conscriptum gloria haec est omnibus sanctis eius

To execute upon them the sentence written, An honour, shall it be to all his men of lovingkindness. Praise ye Yah!
