Psalms 149

1Hallelujah. Sing to the Lord a new song, sound his praise where the faithful are gathered.

2Let Israel rejoice in its maker, sons of Zion exult in their king.

3Let them praise his name in the dance, making music with lyre and with timbrel.

4For the Lord delights in his people, adorning the humble with victory.

5Let the faithful exult and extol him with glad ringing cries all night long.

6High praises of God in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

7on the heathen to execute vengeance, and chastisement sore on the nations,

8binding their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron,

9to execute on them the doom that is written. This is the glory of all his faithful. Hallelujah.
