Chapter 149
1 Praise the LORD ! Sing to the LORD a new song , his praise in the assembly of the saints .
2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them . 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 tambourine and harp !
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people . He crowns the humble with salvation .
5 Let the saints rejoice in honour . Let them sing for joy on their beds .
6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand ,
7 to execute vengeance on the nations , and punishments on the peoples ;
8 to bind their kings with chains , and their nobles with fetters of iron ;
9 to execute on them the written judgement. All his saints have this honour . Praise the LORD !
