149:1 Let the Lord be praised. Make a new song to the Lord, let his praise be in the meeting of his saints.

149:2 Let Israel have joy in his maker; let the children of Zion be glad in their King.

149:3 Let them give praise to his name in the dance: let them make melody to him with instruments of brass and corded instruments of music.

149:4 For the Lord has pleasure in his people: he gives the poor in spirit a crown of salvation.

149:5 Let the saints have joy and glory: let them give cries of joy on their beds.

149:6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hands;

149:7 To give the nations the reward of their sins, and the peoples their punishment;

149:8 To put their kings in chains, and their rulers in bands of iron;

149:9 To give them the punishment which is in the holy writings: this honour is given to all his saints. Praise be to the Lord.
