Praise to God for His Salvation and Judgment

149 Praise[a] the Lord!

(A)Sing to the Lord a new song,
And His praise in the assembly of saints.

Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;
Let the children of Zion be joyful in their (B)King.
(C)Let them praise His name with the dance;
Let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp.
For (D)the Lord takes pleasure in His people;
(E)He will beautify the [b]humble with salvation.

Let the saints be joyful in glory;
Let them (F)sing aloud on their beds.
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,
And (G)a two-edged sword in their hand,
To execute vengeance on the nations,
And punishments on the peoples;
To bind their kings with chains,
And their nobles with fetters of iron;
(H)To execute on them the written judgment—
(I)This honor have all His saints.

[c]Praise the Lord!

149 Purihin ninyo ang Panginoon. Magsiawit kayo sa Panginoon ng bagong awit, at ng kaniyang kapurihan sa kapisanan ng mga banal.

Magalak nawa ang Israel sa kaniya na lumalang sa kaniya: magalak nawa ang mga anak ng Sion sa kanilang Hari.

Purihin nila ang kaniyang pangalan sa sayaw: magsiawit sila ng mga pagpuri sa kaniya na may pandereta at alpa.

Sapagka't ang Panginoon ay nalulugod sa kaniyang bayan: kaniyang pagagandahin ng kaligtasan ang maamo.

Pumuri nawa ang mga banal sa kaluwalhatian: magsiawit sila sa kagalakan sa kanilang mga higaan.

Malagay nawa sa kanilang bibig ang pinakamataas na pagpuri sa Dios, at tabak na may dalawang talim sa kanilang kamay;

Upang magsagawa ng panghihiganti sa mga bansa, at mga parusa sa mga bayan;

Upang talian ang kanilang mga hari ng mga tanikala, at ang kanilang mga mahal na tao ng mga panaling bakal;

Upang magsagawa sa kanila ng hatol na nasusulat: mayroon ng karangalang ito ang lahat niyang mga banal. Purihin ninyo ang Panginoon.

Psalm 149

Let Israel rejoice(D) in their Maker;(E)
    let the people of Zion be glad in their King.(F)

    and punishment(Q) on the peoples,
to bind their kings with fetters,(R)
    their nobles with shackles of iron,(S)
