Psalm 149
1 Alleluia.
Sing to the Lord a new song:
his praise is in the assembly of the saints.
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him;
and let the children of Sion exult in their king.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance:
let them sing praises to him with timbrel and psaltery.
4 For the Lord taketh pleasure in his people;
and will exalt the meek with salvation.
5 The saints shall rejoice in glory;
and shall exult on their beds.
6 The [1]high praises of God shall be in their throat,
and two-edged swords in their hands;
7 to execute vengeance on the nations,
and punishments among the peoples;
8 to bind their kings with fetters,
and their nobles with manacles of iron;
9 to execute on them the judgment [2]written:
this honour have all his saints.
