Psalms 149

1 Hallelujah. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and His praise in the assembly of the saints.

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

2 Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

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

3 Let them praise His name in the dance; let them sing praises unto Him with the timbrel and harp.

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

4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in His people; He adorneth the humble with salvation.

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

5 Let the saints exult in glory; let them sing for joy upon their beds.

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

6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;

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

7 To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements upon the peoples;

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

8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

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

9 To execute upon them the judgment written; He is the glory of all His saints. Hallelujah.

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