Psalms 149

1 Praise ye the Lord. Sing ye vnto the Lord a newe song: let his prayse be heard in the Congregation of Saints.

Praise ye Yah, Sing to Yahweh a song that is new, his praise in the convocation of the men of lovingkindness.

2 Let Israel reioyce in him that made him, and let ye children of Zion reioyce in their King.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;

3 Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.

Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.

4 For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.

For Yahweh is taking pleasure in his people, He will beautify humbled ones with victory.

5 Let ye Saints be ioyfull with glorie: let them sing loud vpon their beddes.

Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:

6 Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,

The high songs of GOD be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7 To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:

To execute an avenging among the nations, rebukes among the peoples:

8 To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,

To bind their kings with fetters, and their honoured ones with iron bands:

9 That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.

To execute upon them the sentence written, An honour, shall it be to all his men of lovingkindness. Praise ye Yah!
