Psalm 149
O praise the Lord, and sing to the Lord a new song
: O praise him in the assembly of the faithful.
Let Israel rejoice in him that made him
: let the children of Zion be joyful in their king.
Let them praise him in the dance
: let them sing his praise with timbrel and with harp.
For the Lord takes delight in his people
: he adorns the meek with his salvation.
Let his faithful ones exult in his glory
: let them sing for joy upon their beds.
Let the high praises of God be in their mouths
: and a two-edged sword in their hands,
To execute vengeance on the nations
: and chastisement upon the peoples,
To bind their kings in chains
: and their nobles with fetters of iron,
To visit upon them the judgement that is decreed
: such honour belongs to all his faithful servants.
Praise the Lord.
