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

O Israel, rejoice in your Maker. O people of Jerusalem, exult in your King. 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. Bind their kings and leaders with iron chains, and execute their sentences.

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

149 Molwch yr Arglwydd. Cenwch i’r Arglwydd ganiad newydd, a’i foliant ef yng nghynulleidfa y saint. Llawenhaed Israel yn yr hwn a’i gwnaeth: gorfoledded meibion Seion yn eu Brenin. Molant ei enw ef ar y dawns: canant iddo ar dympan a thelyn. Oherwydd hoffodd yr Arglwydd ei bobl: efe a brydfertha y rhai llednais â iachawdwriaeth. Gorfoledded y saint mewn gogoniant: a chanant ar eu gwelyau. Bydded ardderchog foliant Duw yn eu genau, a chleddyf daufiniog yn eu dwylo; I wneuthur dial ar y cenhedloedd, a chosb ar y bobloedd; I rwymo eu brenhinoedd â chadwynau, a’u pendefigion â gefynnau heyrn; I wneuthur arnynt y farn ysgrifenedig: yr ardderchowgrwydd hwn sydd i’w holl saint ef. Molwch yr Arglwydd.

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!
