Psalms 149

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

Praise ye the Lord. Sing ye vnto the Lord a newe song: let his prayse be heard in the Congregation of Saints.

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

Let Israel reioyce in him that made him, and let ye children of Zion reioyce in their King.

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

Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.

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

For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.

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

Let ye Saints be ioyfull with glorie: let them sing loud vpon their beddes.

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

Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,

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

To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:

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

To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,

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

That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.
