Psalm 149

Praise Him, All His People

Praise Him, All His People

Praise the Lord.[a]

The Church Triumphant

Sing to the Lord a new song.
Sing his praise in the congregation of his favored ones.
Let Israel rejoice in its Maker.
Let the people of Zion celebrate for their King.
Let them praise his name with dancing.
With hand drum and lyre let them make music to him.
For the Lord is pleased with his people.
He adorns the humble with salvation.
Let those he favors rejoice in honor.
Let them shout for joy on their beds.

The Church Militant

May high praise of God be in their throats,
and a two-edged sword in their hands,
to inflict vengeance on the nations
and punishments on the peoples,
to bind their kings with chains
and their nobles with iron shackles,
to carry out the judgment written against them.
This is the glory of all his favored people.
Praise the Lord.

  1. Psalm 149:1 Hebrew hallelu Yah

149 Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.

Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.

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

To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;

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

To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the Lord.

Glädje i Herren

149 [a]Halleluja!
    Sjung till Herren en ny sång,
        hans lov i de trognas församling!
[b]Israel ska glädja sig över sin Skapare,
    Sions barn jubla över sin kung.
[c]De ska prisa hans namn med dans,
    sjunga hans lov med tamburin
        och harpa,
[d]för Herren gläds över sitt folk,
    han smyckar de ödmjuka
        med frälsning.

[e]De trogna ska jubla i härlighet
    och sjunga av glädje på sin bädd.
[f]De ska ha Guds lov i sin mun
    och ett tveeggat svärd i sin hand,
[g]för att hämnas på hednafolken
    och straffa folken,
[h]för att binda deras
        kungar med kedjor
    och deras stormän
        med bojor av järn,
[i]för att verkställa den dom
        som står skriven.
    Det blir en ära för alla hans trogna.
        Halleluja!
