< Psalms 149 >

1 Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.
Praise ye Jehovah. Sing unto Jehovah 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 him that made him: 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 timbrel and harp.
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.
For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek 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 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 nobles with fetters of iron;
9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his faithful ones have this honor. Praise the LORD.
To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah.
