Psalmi 149

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

Praise Yahweh. Sing to Yahweh a new song; sing 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 the one who made them; let the people of Zion rejoice in their king.

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

Let them praise his name with dancing; 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 Yahweh takes pleasure in his people; he glorifies the humble with salvation.

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

Let the godly rejoice in victory; 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 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 acts of punishment on the peoples.

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

They will bind their kings with chains and their nobles with iron shackles.

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

They will execute the judgment that is written. This will be an honor for all his faithful ones. Praise Yahweh.
