¹Praise the Lord !

Sing to the Lord a new song,

his praise in the assembly of the faithful!

²Let Israel be glad in his Maker,

let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King!

³Let them praise his name with dancing,

making melody to him with timbrel and lyre!

⁴For the Lord takes pleasure in his people;

he adorns the humble with victory.

⁵Let the faithful exult in glory;

let them sing for joy on their couches.

⁶Let the high praises of God be in their throats

and two-edged swords in their hands,

⁷to wreak vengeance on the nations

and chastisement on the peoples,

⁸to bind their kings with chains

and their nobles with fetters of iron,

⁹to execute on them the judgment written!

This is glory for all his faithful ones.

Praise the Lord !
