Psalm 149

Living Bible

149 Hallelujah! Yes, praise the Lord! Sing him a new song. Sing his praises, all his people.

² O Israel, rejoice in your Maker. O people of Jerusalem, exult in your King. ³ Praise his name with dancing, accompanied by drums and lyre.

^4-5 For Jehovah enjoys his people; he will save the humble. Let his people rejoice in this honor. Let them sing for joy as they lie upon their beds.

^6-7 Adore him, O his people! And take a double-edged sword to execute his punishment upon the nations. ⁸ Bind their kings and leaders with iron chains, ⁹ and execute their sentences.

He is the glory of his people. Hallelujah! Praise him!
