Psalms 149 (KJV)

Praise ye the LORD . Sing unto the LORD a new song, And his praise in the congregation of saints.

Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: He will beautify the meek with salvation.

Let the saints be joyful in glory: Let them sing aloud upon their beds.

Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a twoedged sword in their hand;

To execute vengeance upon the heathen, And punishments upon the people;

To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;

To execute upon them the judgment written: This honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD .
