Psalmi 149

1 Pojte Gospodu pjesmu novu; hvala da mu je na saboru svetijeh.

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

2 Neka se veseli Izrailj o stvoritelju svom, sinovi Sionski nek se raduju o caru svom.

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

3 Neka hvale ime njegovo poklikujuæi, u bubanj i gusle neka mu udaraju.

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

4 Jer je mio Gospodu narod njegov, ukrašava smjerne spasavajuæi ih.

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

5 Nek se vesele sveci u slavi, i nek se raduju na posteljama svojim.

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

6 Slava je Božija u ustima njihovijem, i maè s obje strane oštar u ruci njihovoj,

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

7 Da se osvete narodima, i pokaraju plemena;

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

8 Da svežu careve njihove u lance, i vlastelu njihovu u okove gvozdene,

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

9 I izvrše na njima napisani sud. Ova je èast svima svecima njegovijem. Aliluja!

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