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

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

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

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

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

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand;

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

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

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

1 Halleluja! Sing tot eer van die HERE 'n nuwe lied, sy lof in die vergadering van die gunsgenote!

2 Laat Israel hom verheug in sy Maker; laat die kinders van Sion juig oor hulle Koning!

3 Laat hulle sy Naam loof in koordans, Hom psalmsing met tamboeryn en siter.

4 Want die HERE het 'n welbehae in sy volk; Hy versier die ootmoediges met heil.

5 Laat die gunsgenote juig in heerlikheid; laat hulle jubel op hul bedde.

6 Lofverheffinge van God is in hulle keel, en 'n tweesnydende swaard in hulle hand;

7 om wraak te oefen onder die heidene, strafgerigte onder die volke;

8 om hulle konings met kettings te bind en hulle edeles met ysterboeie;

9 om 'n vonnis wat opgeskrywe is, aan hulle te voltrek. 'n Eer is dit vir al sy gunsgenote! Halleluja!
