The Psalms

Psalm 149

 ^149:1Praise ye Jehovah.

 Sing unto Jehovah a new song,

 And his praise in the assembly of the saints.

 ^149:2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him:

 Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

 ^149:3Let them praise his name in the dance:

 Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp.

 ^149:4For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people:

 He will beautify the meek with salvation.

 ^149:5Let the saints exult in glory:

 Let them sing for joy upon their beds.

 ^149:6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,

 And a two-edged sword in their hand;

 ^149:7To execute vengeance upon the nations,

 And punishments upon the peoples;

 ^149:8To bind their kings with chains,

 And their nobles with fetters of iron;

 ^149:9To execute upon them the judgment written:

 This honor have all his saints.

 Praise ye Jehovah.
