Psalms – Chapter 149

Books of The Bible / Book of Psalms

1 Alleluia! Sing a new song to Yahweh: his praise in the assembly of the faithful!

2 Israel shall rejoice in its Maker, the children of Zion delight in their king;

3 they shall dance in praise of his name, play to him on tambourines and harp!

4 For Yahweh loves his people, he will crown the humble with salvation.

5 The faithful exult in glory, shout for joy as they worship him,

6 praising God to the heights with their voices, a two-edged sword in their hands,

7 to wreak vengeance on the nations, punishment on the peoples,

8 to load their kings with chains and their nobles with iron fetters,

9 to execute on them the judgement passed — to the honour of all his faithful.
