The Book of Psalms

 

Chapter 149

 

 

1.

 

Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.

    
 
 

2.

 

Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.

    
 
 

3.

 

Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.

    
 
 

4.

 

For the Lord has pleasure in his people: he gives the poor in spirit a crown of salvation.

    
 
 

5.

 

Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.

    
 
 

6.

 

Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;

    
 
 

7.

 

To give the nations the reward of their sins, and the peoples their punishment;

    
 
 

8.

 

To put their kings in chains, and their rulers in bands of iron;

    
 
 

9.

 

To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.
