<< Psalm 149 >>
New American Standard ©


1 Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, And His praise in the congregation of the godly ones.
2 Let Israel be glad in his Maker; Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King.
3 Let them praise His name with dancing; Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.
5 Let the godly ones exult in glory; Let them sing for joy on their beds.
6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand,
7 To execute vengeance on the nations And punishment on the peoples,
8 To bind their kings with chains And their nobles with fetters of iron,
9 To execute on them the judgment written; This is an honor for all His godly ones. Praise the LORD!
