149
1 Praise the LORD!
Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful.
2 Let Israel rejoice in its Maker;
let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.
3 Let them praise his name with dancing and sing praise to him with tambourine and lyre.
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people;
he adorns the humble with salvation.
5 Let the faithful exult in honor and sing for joy on their beds.
6 Let the high praises of God be in their throats, and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7 to carry out 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 carry out on them the judgment written.
This is an honor for all his faithful ones.
Praise the LORD!
