149 Psalms

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

Sing to the Lord a New Song. Psalm 149
2 Let Israel be glad in his Maker,
let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King!

 
3 Let them praise his name with dancing,
making melody to him with timbrel and lyre!

 
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people;
he adorns the humble with victory.

 
5 Let the faithful exult in glory;
let them sing for joy on their couches.

 
6 Let the high praises of God be in their throats
and two-edged swords in their hands,

 
7 to wreak vengeance on the nations
and chastisement on the peoples,

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

 
9 to execute on them the judgement written!
This is the glory for all his faithful ones.
Praise the LORD!
