Psalm 149
1Hallelujah!
Sing a new song to the Lord.
Sing his praise in the assembly of godly people.
2Let Israel find joy in their creator.
Let the people of Zion rejoice over their king.
3Let them praise his name with dancing.
Let them make music to him with tambourines and lyres,
4because the Lord takes pleasure in his people.
He crowns those who are oppressed with victory.
5Let godly people triumph in glory.
Let them sing for joy on their beds.
6Let the high praises of God be in their throats
and two-edged swords in their hands
7to take vengeance on the nations,
to punish the people of the world,
8to put their kings in chains
and their leaders in iron shackles,
9to carry out the judgment that is written against them.
This is an honor that belongs to all his godly ones.
Hallelujah!

Psalm 149
1Praise the Lord.#149:1 Hebrew Hallelu Yah; also in verse 9
Sing to the Lord a new song,
his praise in the assembly of his faithful people.
2Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;
let the people of Zion be glad in their King.
3Let them praise his name with dancing
and make music to him with tambourine and harp.
4For the Lord takes delight in his people;
he crowns the humble with victory.
5Let his faithful people rejoice in this honour
and sing for joy on their beds.
6May the praise of God be in their mouths
and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7to inflict vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,
8to bind their kings with fetters,
their nobles with shackles of iron,
9to carry out the sentence written against them –
this is the glory of all his faithful people.
Praise the Lord.
