1 你們要讚美耶和華、向耶和華唱新歌、在聖民的會中讚美他。
Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints. |
2 願以色列因造他的主歡喜．願錫安的民、因他們的王快樂。
Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. |
3 願他們跳舞讚美他的名、擊鼓彈琴歌頌他。
Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with tambourine and harp. |
4 因為耶和華喜愛他的百姓．他要用救恩當作謙卑人的妝飾。
For the LORD takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation. |
5 願聖民因所得的榮耀高興．願他們在床上歡呼。
Let the saints rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. |
6 願他們口中稱讚 神為高、手裡有兩刃的刀．
May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands, |
7 為要報復列邦、刑罰萬民．
to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, |
8 要用鍊子捆他們的君王、用鐵鐐鎖他們的大臣．
to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with shackles of iron, |
9 要在他們身上施行所記錄的審判．他的聖民都有這榮耀。你們要讚美耶和華。
to carry out the sentence written against them. This is the glory of all his saints. Praise the LORD. |
