Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints. |
| 149:2 |
Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. |
| 149:3 |
Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with tambourine and harp. |
| 149:4 |
For the LORD takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with salvation. |
| 149:5 |
Let the saints rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. |
| 149:6 |
May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands, |
| 149:7 |
to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, |
| 149:8 |
to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with shackles of iron, |
| 149:9 |
to carry out the sentence written against them. This is the glory of all his saints. Praise the LORD. |
