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!

Psalms 149

Triumphant Praise
1Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
It’s time to sing to God a brand-new song # 149:1 Or “a spontaneous song.”
so that all his holy people will hear how wonderful he is!
2May Israel be enthused with joy because of him,
and may the sons of Zion pour out
their joyful praises to their King.
3Break forth with dancing!
Make music and sing God’s praises with the rhythm of drums!
4For he enjoys his faithful lovers.
He adorns the humble with his beauty,
and he loves to give them victory.
5His godly lovers triumph in the glory of God,
and their joyful praises will rise even while others sleep.
6God’s high and holy praises fill their mouths,
for their shouted praises are their weapons of war!
7These warring weapons will bring vengeance
on the nations and every resistant power—
8to bind kings with chains and rulers with iron shackles.
9Praise-filled warriors will enforce
the judgment decreed against their enemies.
This is the honor he gives to all his godly lovers.
Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!
