1Praise the Lord!
#Lev. 10:3; Eph. 2:17Sing to the Lord a new song,
And His praise in the assembly of saints.
2Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;
Let the children of Zion be joyful in their #Ps. 33:3King.
3#Judg. 8:23; Zech. 9:9; Matt. 21:5Let them praise His name with the dance;
Let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp.
4For #Ex. 15:20; Ps. 81:2the Lord takes pleasure in His people;
#Ps. 35:27He will beautify the humble with salvation.
5Let the saints be joyful in glory;
Let them #Ps. 132:16; Is. 61:3sing aloud on their beds.
6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
And #Job 35:10a two-edged sword in their hand,
7To execute vengeance on the nations,
And punishments on the peoples;
8To bind their kings with chains,
And their nobles with fetters of iron;
9#Heb. 4:12; Rev. 1:16To execute on them the written judgment—
#Deut. 7:1, 2; Ezek. 28:26This honor have all His saints.
Praise the Lord!

A new song of praise
1Shout praises to the LORD!
Sing him a new song of praise
when his loyal people meet.
2People of Israel, rejoice
because of your Creator.
People of Zion, celebrate
because of your King.
3Praise his name by dancing
and playing music on harps
and tambourines.
4The LORD is pleased
with his people,
and he gives victory
to those who are humble.
5All you faithful people,
praise our glorious Lord!
Celebrate and worship.
6Praise God with songs
on your lips
and a sword in your hand.
7Take revenge and punish
the nations.
8Put chains of iron
on their kings and rulers.
9Punish them as they deserve;
this is the privilege
of God's faithful people.
Shout praises to the LORD!
