Psalms 149

¹Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song. His praise is in the Church of the saints

²Let Israel rejoice in him who made them, and let the sons of Zion exult in their king

³Let them praise his name in chorus. Let them sing psalms to him with the timbrel and the psaltery

⁴For the Lord is well pleased with his people, and he will exalt the meek unto salvation

⁵The saints will exult in glory. They will rejoice upon their couches

⁶The exultations of God will be in their throat, and two-edged swords will be in their hands

⁷to obtain vindication among the nations, chastisements among the peoples

⁸to bind their kings with shackles and their nobles with manacles of iron

⁹to obtain judgment over them, as it has been written. This is glory for all his saints. Alleluia
