149 Hallelujah! Sing unto Jehovah a new song; [sing] his praise in the congregation of the godly.

⁵ Let the godly exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.

⁶ Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

⁷ To execute vengeance against the nations, [and] punishment among the peoples;

⁸ To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

⁹ To execute upon them the judgment written. This honour have all his saints. Hallelujah!

⁴ Praise him with the tambour and dance; praise him with stringed instruments and the pipe;

⁵ Praise him with loud cymbals; praise him with high sounding cymbals.

⁶ Let everything that hath breath praise Jah. Hallelujah!
