1Praise Yahweh! Sing to Yahweh a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints.
1Halleluja! Syng Herren en ny sang, hans pris i de frommes forsamling!
2Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. 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 to him with tambourine and harp!
3De skal love hans navn med dans, lovsynge ham til pauke og citar.
4For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.
4For Herren har behag i sitt folk, han pryder de saktmodige med frelse.
5Let the saints rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds.
5De fromme skal fryde sig i herlighet, de skal juble på sitt leie.
6May the high praises of God be in their mouths, 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 on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;
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 on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Praise Yah!
9for å fullbyrde foreskreven straffedom over dem. Dette er en ære for alle hans fromme. Halleluja!
