Psalm 149 – Song of Victory
1 Hallelujah.
Sing to the Lord a new song,
sound his praise where the faithful are gathered.
2 Let Israel rejoice in its maker,
sons of Zion exult in their king.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance,
making music with lyre and with timbrel.
4 For the Lord delights in his people,
adorning the humble with victory.
5 Let the faithful exult and extol him
with glad ringing cries all night long.
6 High praises of God in their mouth,
and a two-edged sword in their hand:
7 on the heathen to execute vengeance,
and chastisement sore on the nations,
8 binding their kings with chains,
and their nobles with fetters of iron,
9 to execute on them the doom that is written.
This is the glory of all his faithful.
Hallelujah.
