Psalm 149
Legacy Standard Bible

Yahweh Takes Pleasure in His People

149 [a]Praise Yah!
Sing to Yahweh a (A)new song,
His praise (B)in the assembly of the holy ones.
2 Let Israel be glad in (C)his Maker;
Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their (D)King.
3 Let them praise His name with (E)dancing;
With (F)tambourine and lyre let them sing praises to Him.
4 For Yahweh (G)takes pleasure in His people;
He will (H)beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

5 Let the (I)holy ones exult in glory;
Let them (J)sing for joy on their beds.
6 Let the (K)exaltations of God be in their throats,
And a (L)two-edged (M)sword in their hand,
7 To (N)execute vengeance on the nations
And punishments on the peoples,
8 To bind their kings (O)with chains
And their (P)honored men with fetters of iron,
9 To (Q)execute on them the judgment written;
This is the (R)majesty of all His holy ones.
[b]Praise Yah!
