Psalmi 149

1 Hvalite Gospoda. Zapojte Gospodu novo pesem in njegovo hvalo v skupnosti svetih.

Praise JAH. Sing to Jehovah a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.

2 Naj se Izrael veseli v njem, ki ga je naredil, naj bodo sionski otroci radostni v svojem Kralju.

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

3 Naj s plesom hvalijo njegovo ime; naj mu prepevajo hvalnice s tamburinom in harfo.

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

4 Kajti Gospod se veseli v svojem ljudstvu; krotke bo okrasil z rešitvijo duše.

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

5 Naj bodo sveti radostni v slavi, naj na glas prepevajo na svojih posteljah.

Let the faithful ones rejoice in glory. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

6 Naj bodo na njihovih ustih visoke Božje hvalnice in v njihovi roki dvorezen meč,

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

7 da izvršijo maščevanje nad pogani in kaznovanja nad ljudstvi,

To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

8 da njihove kralje zvežejo z verigami in njihove plemiče z železnimi okovi,

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

9 da nad njimi izvršijo napisano sodbo. To čast imajo vsi sveti. Hvalite Gospoda.

to execute on them the written judgment. All his faithful ones have this honor. Praise JAH.
