Psalms 149

   |   

Yahweh Takes Pleasure in His People

1 (F1)Praise Yah!
Sing to Yahweh a (C1)new song,
His praise (C2)in the assembly of the holy ones.

2 Let Israel be glad in (C1)his Maker;
Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their (C2)King.

3 Let them praise His name with (C1)dancing;
With (C2)tambourine and lyre let them sing praises to Him.

4 For Yahweh (C1)takes pleasure in His people;
He will (C2)beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

5 Let the (C1)holy ones exult in glory;
Let them (C2)sing for joy on their beds.

6 Let the (C1)exaltations of God be in their throats,
And a (C2)two-edged (C3)sword in their hand,

7 To (C1)execute vengeance on the nations
And punishments on the peoples,

8 To bind their kings (C1)with chains
And their (C2)honored men with fetters of iron,

9 To (C1)execute on them the judgment written;
This is the (C2)majesty of all His holy ones.
(F1)Praise Yah!
