Psalms 149
1 Hallelujah! Sing a new song to the LORD; sing his praise in the assembly of the faithful.
2 Let Israel rejoice in its Maker; let the children of Zion exult in their king.
3 Let them praise his name with dancing; play for him with tambourine and harp.
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation.
5 Let the faithful exult in this glory; let them sing for joy on their beds.
6 Let the praises of God be in their throats, and a two-edged sword in their hands,
7 to carry out vengeance on the nations, punishment among the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with chains, their nobles with iron shackles,
9 to carry out the judgment written against them. This is the splendor of all his faithful. Hallelujah!
