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.

Alleluja. Cantate Domino canticum novum; laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum.

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

Lætetur Israël in eo qui fecit eum, et filii Sion exsultent in rege suo.

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

Laudent nomen ejus in choro; in tympano et psalterio psallant ei.

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

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

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

Exsultabunt sancti in gloria; lætabuntur in cubilibus suis.

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

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

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

ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus, increpationes in populis;

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

ad alligandos reges eorum in compedibus, et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis;

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

ut faciant in eis judicium conscriptum: gloria hæc est omnibus sanctis ejus. Alleluja.
