Psalms 149

1. Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, And His praise in the assembly of saints.
   
2. Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
   
3. Let them praise His name with the dance; Let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp.
   
4. For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation.
   
5. Let the saints be joyful in glory; Let them sing aloud on their beds.
   
6. Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two–edged sword in their hand,
   
7. To execute vengeance on the nations, And punishments on the peoples;
   
8. To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;
   
9. To execute on them the written judgment––This honor have all His saints. Praise the LORD!
