Psalm 149 - The Scriptures 2009

¹ Praise Yah! Sing to יהוה a new song, His praise in an assembly of lovingly-committed ones.

² Let Yisra’ĕl rejoice in their Maker; Let the children of Tsiyon exult in their Sovereign.

³ Let them praise His Name in a dance; Let them sing praises to Him with the tambourine and lyre.

⁴ For יהוה takes pleasure in His people; He embellishes the meek ones with deliverance.

⁵ Let the lovingly-committed ones exult in esteem; Let them sing aloud on their beds.

⁶ Let the exaltation of Ěl be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand,

⁷ To execute vengeance on the nations, Punishments on the peoples;

⁸ To bind their sovereigns with chains, And their nobles with iron bands;

⁹ To execute on them the written right-ruling; A splendour it is for all His lovingly-committed ones. Praise Yah!
