Psalm 149

¹Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: let his praise be in the church of the saints.

²Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.

³Let them praise his name in choir: let them sing 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 shall rejoice in glory: they shall be joyful in their beds.

⁶The high praise of God shall be in their mouth: and two-edged swords in their hands:

⁷To execute vengeance upon the nations, chastisements among the people:

⁸To bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron.

⁹To execute upon them the judgment that is written: this glory is to all his saints. Alleluia.
