Psalms 149
NEW_REVISED_STANDARD_VERSION_BIBLE
1¶ Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, his praise in the congregation of saints.
2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
3Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
4For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
5Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds.
6¶ the high of God in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand;
7To execute vengeance upon the heathen, punishments upon the people;
8To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD.
