1Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.
1Halleluja! Syng Herren en ny sang, hans pris i de frommes forsamling!
2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
2Israel glede sig i sin skaper, Sions barn fryde sig i sin konge!
3Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
3De skal love hans navn med dans, lovsynge ham til pauke og citar.
4For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
4For Herren har behag i sitt folk, han pryder de saktmodige med frelse.
5Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.
5De fromme skal fryde sig i herlighet, de skal juble på sitt leie.
6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
6Lovsang for Gud er i deres munn og et tveegget sverd i deres hånd,
7To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;
7for å fullbyrde hevn over hedningene, straff over folkene,
8To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
8for å binde deres konger med lenker og deres fornemme menn med jernbånd,
9To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
9for å fullbyrde foreskreven straffedom over dem. Dette er en ære for alle hans fromme. Halleluja!
