Psalms 149

1 Praise JAH. Sing to Jehovah a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.

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

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the people of Zion be joyful in their King.

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

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

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

4 For Jehovah takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.

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

5 Let the faithful ones rejoice in glory. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

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

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

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

7 To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

To execute vengeance upon the nations, and chastisements 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 nobles with fetters of iron;

9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his faithful ones have this honor. Praise JAH.

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