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 Yahweh. Sing to Yahweh a new song; sing his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.

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

Let Israel rejoice in the one who made them; let the people of Zion rejoice 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 with dancing; let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp.

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

For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people; he glorifies the humble with salvation.

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

Let the godly rejoice in victory; let them sing for joy on their beds.

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

May the praises of God be in their mouths and a two-edged sword in their hand

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

to execute vengeance on the nations and acts of punishment on the peoples.

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

They will bind their kings with chains and their nobles with iron shackles.

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

They will execute the judgment that is written. This will be an honor for all his faithful ones. Praise Yahweh.
