Psalms 149

1 Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints.

Praise ye Jah! Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.

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

Israel doth rejoice in his Maker, Sons of Zion do joy in their king.

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

They praise His name in a dance, With timbrel and harp sing praise to Him.

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

For Jehovah is pleased with His people, He beautifieth the humble with salvation.

5 Let the saints rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

Exult do saints in honour, They sing aloud on their beds.

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

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

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

To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.

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

To bind their kings with chains, And their honoured ones with fetters of iron,

9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Praise the LORD!

To do among them the judgment written, An honour it [is] for all his saints. Praise ye Jah!
