Psalms 149
1 Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song: his praise is in the assembly of the saints.
Praise ye the Lord. Sing ye vnto the Lord a newe song: let his prayse be heard in the Congregation of Saints.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him; and let the children of Sion exult in their king.
Let Israel reioyce in him that made him, and let ye children of Zion reioyce in their King.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sings praises to him with timbrel and lute.
Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.
4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; and will exalt the meek with salvation.
For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.
5 The saints shall rejoice in glory; and shall exult on their beds.
Let ye Saints be ioyfull with glorie: let them sing loud vpon their beddes.
6 The high praises of God shall be in their throat, and two-edged swords in their hands;
Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,
7 to execute vengeance on the nations, [and] punishments among the peoples;
To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:
8 to bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron; to execute on them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints.
To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,
That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.
