< Psalmi 149 >
1 Alleluja! Dziediet Tam Kungam jaunu dziesmu, svēto draudze lai Viņu teic.
Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.
2 Israēls lai priecājās iekš sava Radītāja, Ciānas bērni lai līksmojās par savu Ķēniņu!
Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.
3 Lai tie Viņa vārdu teic ar stabulēm, lai tie Viņam dzied ar bungām un koklēm.
Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.
4 Jo Tam Kungam labs prāts pie Saviem ļaudīm, Viņš pagodina bēdīgos ar pestīšanu.
For the Lord has pleasure in his people: he gives the poor in spirit a crown of salvation.
5 Svētie priecāsies godā, tie līksmosies savās gultās.
Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.
6 Viņu mute paaugstinās Dievu, un viņu rokās būs abējās pusēs griezīgs zobens,
Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;
7 Atriebties pie pagāniem un sodīt tautas,
To give the nations the reward of their sins, and the peoples their punishment;
8 Saistīt viņu ķēniņus ķēdēs un viņu lielkungus dzelzs pinekļos,
To put their kings in chains, and their rulers in bands of iron;
9 Darīt tiem pēc tās tiesas, kas ir rakstīta. Tāds gods būs visiem Viņa svētiem. Alleluja!
To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.
