George Lamsa Translation
Psalms 149
1 PRAISE the LORD. Sing to 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 with the timbrel and psaltery; let them sing praises to him with the harps.4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he has given salvation to the poor.5 Let the righteous become mighty in glory; let them glorify him upon their beds.
6 Let them exalt God with their throats, and with a two-edged sword in their hand,7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the peoples,8 To bind their kings with fetters and their nobles with chains of iron.9 To execute upon them the judgment that is written; and give glory to all his saints. Praise the LORD.
