Psalms

149

Christian Standard Bible

1 Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful.

2 Let Israel celebrate its Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.

3 Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with tambourine and lyre.

4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation.

5 Let the faithful celebrate in triumphal glory; let them shout for joy on their beds.

6 Let the exaltation of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands,

7 inflicting vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,

8 binding their kings with chains and their dignitaries with iron shackles,

9 carrying out the judgment decreed against them. This honor is for all his faithful people. Hallelujah!
