1 Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.2 Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.3 Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.4 For the Lord has pleasure in his people: he gives the poor in spirit a crown of salvation.5 Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;7 To give the nations the reward of their sins, and the peoples their punishment;8 To put their kings in chains, and their rulers in bands of iron;9 To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.

1 Halleluja! Syng Herren en ny sang, hans pris i de frommes forsamling!2 Israel glede sig i sin skaper, Sions barn fryde sig i sin konge!3 De skal love hans navn med dans, lovsynge ham til pauke og citar.4 For Herren har behag i sitt folk, han pryder de saktmodige med frelse.5 De fromme skal fryde sig i herlighet, de skal juble på sitt leie.6 Lovsang for Gud er i deres munn og et tveegget sverd i deres hånd,7 for å fullbyrde hevn over hedningene, straff over folkene,8 for å binde deres konger med lenker og deres fornemme menn med jernbånd,9 for å fullbyrde foreskreven straffedom over dem. Dette er en ære for alle hans fromme. Halleluja!
