Psalms 149

1 Praise Yahweh! Sing a new song to Yahweh, praise him whenever [his] faithful [people] gather together!

Cantád a Jehová canción nueva: su alabanza sea en la congregación de los misericordiosos.

2 [You] Israeli people, be glad because of [what God], who created you, [has done for you]! You people of Jerusalem, rejoice because of [what God] your king [has done for you]!

Alégrese Israel con su hacedor: los hijos de Sión se regocijen con su Rey.

3 Praise Yahweh by dancing, by beating/playing tambourines, and by playing harps to praise him!

Alaben su nombre con corro: con adufe y arpa canten a él.

4 Yahweh is pleased with his people; he honors humble [people] by helping them to defeat [their enemies].

Porque Jehová toma contentamiento con su pueblo: hermoseará a los humildes con salud.

5 God’s people should rejoice because they have won battles and they should sing joyfully all during the night!

Regocijarse han los piadosos con gloria: cantarán sobre sus camas.

6 They [MTY] should shout loudly to praise God; but [they should also hold] sharp swords in their hands,

Ensalzamientos de Dios estarán en sus gargantas; y espadas de dos filos en sus manos:

7 [ready to use them] to defeat the [soldiers of] nations [that do not worship God], and to punish the people [of those nations],

Para hacer venganza de los Gentiles: castigos en los pueblos.

8 and to fasten the arms and legs of their kings and other leaders with iron chains,

Para aprisionar a sus reyes en grillos; y a sus nobles en cadenas de hierro.

9 to judge [and punish] the people of those nations, like [God] wrote/declared [should be done]. It is (a privilege/an honor) for God’s faithful people to do that! Praise Yahweh!

Para hacer en ellos el juicio escrito: esta será la gloria de todos sus piadosos. Alelu- Jah.
