149:1  Praise ye Jehovah. Sing unto Jehovah a new song, And his praise in the assembly of the saints.

149:2  Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

149:3  Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with timbrel and harp.

149:4  For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek with salvation.

149:5  Let the saints exult in glory: Let them sing for joy upon their beds.

149:6  `Let' the high praises of God `be' in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand;

149:7  To execute vengeance upon the nations, And punishments upon the peoples;

149:8  To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;

149:9  To execute upon them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints. Praise ye Jehovah.
