Psalms 149

Israel invoked to praise Jehovah.

¹Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful!

²Let Israel be glad in his Maker, let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King!

³Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with timbrel and lyre!

⁴For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with victory.

⁵Let the faithful exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their couches.

⁶Let the high praises of God be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands,

⁷to wreak vengeance on the nations and chastisement on the peoples,

⁸to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron,

⁹to execute on them the judgment written! This is glory for all his faithful ones. Praise the LORD!
