With Timbrel and Lyre

Psalm 149

1 Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, and His praise in the congregation of the godly ones.
2 Let Israel be glad in his maker; let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King.
3 Let them praise His name with dancing; let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.
5 Let the godly ones exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds.
6 {Let} the high praises of God {be} in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand,
7 To execute vengeance on the nations, and punishment on the peoples;
8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9 To execute on them the judgment written; this is an honor for all His godly ones. Praise the LORD!
