Psalms 149

Sing to the LORD a New Song

(Psalm 98:1–9; Isaiah 42:10–17)

1Praise Yah! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful ones.
2Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.
3Let them praise his name with dancing; with timbrel and harp let them sing praises to him.
4For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation (Yeshuah).
5Let the faithful ones exult in glory; let them sing for joy upon their beds.
6The high praises of God are in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
7to execute vengeance among the nations, chastisements among the peoples;
8to bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9to execute upon them the judgment^a written; this is the honor for all his faithful ones. Praise Yah.
