• Psalm 149

  • 1 Praise the Lord. Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of his faithful people.
  • 2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King.
  • 3 Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with timbrel and harp.
  • 4 For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.
  • 5 Let his faithful people rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds.
  • 6 May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands,
  • 7 to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
  • 8 to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with shackles of iron,
  • 9 to carry out the sentence written against them— this is the glory of all his faithful people. Praise the Lord.
