Psalm 149

Praise for God's Triumph

1 Hallelujah!
Sing to the Lord a new song,(a)
His praise in the assembly of the godly.(b)
2 Let Israel celebrate its Maker;
let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.(c)
3 Let them praise His name with dancing
and make music to Him with tambourine and lyre.(d)
4 For Yahweh takes pleasure in His people;(e)
He adorns the humble with salvation.(f)
5 Let the godly celebrate in triumphal glory;
let them shout for joy on their beds.(g)

6 Let the exaltation of God be in their mouths[a]
and a double-edged sword in their hands,(h)
7 inflicting vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,(i)
8 binding their kings with chains
and their dignitaries with iron shackles,(j)
9 carrying out the judgment decreed against them.
This honor is for all His godly people.(k)
Hallelujah!
