Chapter 149
|
1
|
Praise ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song,
and his praise in the congregation of saints. |
2
|
Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children
of Zion be joyful in their King. |
3
|
Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing
praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. |
4
|
For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will
beautify the meek with salvation. |
5
|
Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud
upon 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 upon the heathen, and punishments
upon the people; |
8
|
To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with
fetters of iron; |
9
|
To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour
have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD. |
