Psalms 149

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

Praise Yahweh. Sing to Yahweh a new song; sing his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.

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

Let Israel rejoice in the one who made them; let the people of Zion rejoice in their king.

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

Let them praise his name with dancing; let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp.

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

For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people; he glorifies the humble with salvation.

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

Let the godly rejoice in victory; let them sing for joy on their beds.

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

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

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

to execute vengeance on the nations and acts of punishment on the peoples.

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

They will bind their kings with chains and their nobles with iron shackles.

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

They will execute the judgment that is written. This will be an honor for all his faithful ones. Praise Yahweh.
