149:1  Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song. Sing his praises in the assembly of the faithful.
149:2  O Israel, rejoice in your Maker. O people of Jerusalem, exult in your King.
149:3  Praise his name with dancing, accompanied by tambourine and harp.
149:4  For the LORD delights in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.
149:5  Let the faithful rejoice that he honors them. Let them sing for joy as they lie on their beds.
149:6  Let the praises of God be in their mouths, and a sharp sword in their hands--
149:7  to execute vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
149:8  to bind their kings with shackles and their leaders with iron chains,
149:9  to execute the judgment written against them. This is the glorious privilege of his faithful ones. Praise the LORD!
