Psalms 149

1 Praise ye Jehovah. Sing to Jehovah a new song, and his praise in the assembly of the sanctified.

Alleluia. Cantate Domino canticum novum: laus eius in ecclesia sanctorum.

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made him. Let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.

Lætetur Israel in eo, qui fecit eum: et filii Sion exultent in rege suo.

3 Let them praise his name in the dance. Let them sing praises to him with timbrel and harp.

Laudent nomen eius in choro: in tympano, et psalterio psallant ei:

4 For Jehovah takes pleasure in his people. He will beautify the meek with salvation.

Quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo: et exaltabit mansuetos in salutem.

5 Let the sanctified exult in glory. Let them sing for joy upon their beds.

Exultabunt sancti in gloria: lætabuntur in cubilibus suis.

6 The high praises of God are in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand

Exaltationes Dei in gutture eorum: et gladii ancipites in manibus eorum:

7 to execute vengeance upon the nations, and punishments upon the peoples,

Ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus: increpationes in populis.

8 to bind their kings with chains, and their ranking men with fetters of iron,

Ad alligandos reges eorum in compedibus: et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis.

9 to execute upon them the judgment written. All his sanctified have this honor. Praise ye Jehovah.

Ut faciant in eis iudicium conscriptum: gloria hæc est omnibus sanctis eius. Alleluia.
