| Chapter 149 |
1 | Praise ye the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.
|
2 | Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
|
3 | Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises to him with the timbrel and harp:
|
4 | For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
|
5 | Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon 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 upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people;
|
8 | To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
|
9 | To execute upon them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
