Psalms 149

1 Praise YAH! Sing to YHWH a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.

הַלְלוּ יָהּ ׀ שִׁירוּ לַֽיהוָה שִׁיר חָדָשׁ תְּהִלָּתוֹ בִּקְהַל חֲסִידִֽים׃

2 Israel rejoices in his Maker, Sons of Zion rejoice in their king.

יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעֹשָׂיו בְּנֵֽי־צִיּוֹן יָגִילוּ בְמַלְכָּֽם׃

3 They praise His Name in a dance, Sing praise to Him with timbrel and harp.

יְהַֽלְלוּ שְׁמוֹ בְמָחוֹל בְּתֹף וְכִנּוֹר יְזַמְּרוּ־לֽוֹ׃

4 For YHWH is pleased with His people, He beautifies the humble with salvation.

כִּֽי־רוֹצֶה יְהוָה בְּעַמּוֹ יְפָאֵר עֲנָוִים בִּישׁוּעָֽה׃

5 Saints exult in glory, They sing aloud on their beds.

יַעְלְזוּ חֲסִידִים בְּכָבוֹד יְרַנְּנוּ עַל־מִשְׁכְּבוֹתָֽם׃

6 The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.

רוֹמְמוֹת אֵל בִּגְרוֹנָם וְחֶרֶב פִּֽיפִיּוֹת בְּיָדָֽם׃

7 To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.

לַעֲשׂוֹת נְקָמָה בַּגּוֹיִם תּֽוֹכֵחֹת בַּל־אֻמִּֽים׃

8 To bind their kings with chains, And their honored ones with chains of iron,

לֶאְסֹר מַלְכֵיהֶם בְּזִקִּים וְנִכְבְּדֵיהֶם בְּכַבְלֵי בַרְזֶֽל׃

9 To do among them the judgment written, It [is] an honor for all his saints. Praise YAH!

לַעֲשׂוֹת בָּהֶם ׀ מִשְׁפָּט כָּתוּב הָדָר הוּא לְכָל־חֲסִידָיו הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
