1 Halleluja! Syng Herren en ny sang, hans pris i de frommes forsamling!
2 Israel glede sig i sin skaper, Sions barn fryde sig i sin konge!
3 De skal love hans navn med dans, lovsynge ham til pauke og citar.
4 For Herren har behag i sitt folk, han pryder de saktmodige med frelse.
5 De fromme skal fryde sig i herlighet, de skal juble på sitt leie.
6 Lovsang for Gud er i deres munn og et tveegget sverd i deres hånd,
7 for å fullbyrde hevn over hedningene, straff over folkene,
8 for å binde deres konger med lenker og deres fornemme menn med jernbånd,
9 for å fullbyrde foreskreven straffedom over dem. Dette er en ære for alle hans fromme. Halleluja!
1 Praise Yahweh!
Sing to Yahweh a new song,
his praise in the assembly of the saints.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them.
Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance!
Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp!
4 For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people.
He crowns the humble with salvation.
5 Let the saints rejoice in honor.
Let them sing for joy on their beds.
6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths,
and a two-edged sword in their hand,
7 to execute vengeance on the nations,
and punishments on the peoples;
8 to bind their kings with chains,
and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9 to execute on them the written judgment.
All his saints have this honor.
Praise Yah!
