Psalms 149

PSALM 149.

1 Praise ye the Lord. Sing unto the Lord a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints. ^{▼▼ Praise…: Heb. Hallelujah} 2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. ^{▼▼ in him…: Heb. in his Makers} 3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. ^{▼▼ in…: or, with the pipe} 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 twoedged sword in their hand; ^{▼▼ mouth: Heb. throat} 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 honour have all his saints. Praise ye the Lord.
