Zaburi 149

1 Msifuni Yahwe. Mwimbieni Yahwe wimbo mpya; imbeni sifa zake katika kusanyiko la waaminifu.

Praise ye the Lord. Sing ye vnto the Lord a newe song: let his prayse be heard in the Congregation of Saints.

2 Israeli ishangilie katika yeye aliye iumba; watu wa Sayuni na washangilie katika mfalme wao.

Let Israel reioyce in him that made him, and let ye children of Zion reioyce in their King.

3 Nao walisifu jina lake kwa kucheza; na wamuimbie sifa yeye kwa ngoma na kinubi.

Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.

4 Kwa kuwa Yahwe hupata furaha katika watu wake; huwapa utukufu wanyeyekevu kwa wokovu.

For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.

5 Wacha Mungu wauchangilie ushindi; nao waimbe kwa furaha vitandani mwao.

Let ye Saints be ioyfull with glorie: let them sing loud vpon their beddes.

6 Sifa za Mungu na ziwe vinywani mwao na panga mbili zenye makali mkononi mwao

Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,

7 kutekeleza kisasi juu ya mataifa na matendo ya adhabu juu ya watu.

To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:

8 Nao watawafunga wafalme wao kwa minyororo na wakuu wao kwa pingu za chuma. Watatekeleza hukumu ambayo imeandikwa.

To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,

9 Hii itakuwa ni heshima kwa ajili ya watakatifu wake wote. Msifuni Yahwe.

That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.
