Psalms 149

Praise to God for His Future Judgment

1Praise Yah.[#Hebrew hallelujah]

Sing to Yahweh a new song,

his praise in the assembly of the faithful.

2Let Israel be glad in its maker;

let the children of Zion rejoice in their king.

3Let them praise his name with dancing;

let them sing praises to him with tambourine and lyre.

4For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people;

he glorifies the afflicted with salvation.

5Let the faithful exult in glory;

let them sing for joy on their beds.

6Let the extolling of God be in their throat,

and a double-edged sword in their hand,

7to execute vengeance on the nations

and punishment on the peoples,

8to bind their kings with chains

and their nobles with fetters of iron,

9to execute on them the judgment that is decreed.[#Hebrew “written”]

This will be honor for all his faithful ones;

Praise Yah.
