KJ3 Literal Translation
Psalms 149
The prophet exhorts to praise Jehovah for His love to the elect, and for His power over His enemies.
1Praise Jah! Sing to Jehovah a new song, His praise in the assembly of the godly ones.
2Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful in their King.
3Let them praise His name in the dance; let them sing praise to Him with the timbrel and lyre.
4For Jehovah takes pleasure in His people; He beautifies the humble with salvation.
5Let the godly ones be joyful in glory; let them sing aloud on their beds.
6Let the exaltation of God be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand,
7to execute vengeance on the nations, punishments on the peoples;
8to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with iron bands;
9to execute on them the judgment written; have this honor for all His godly ones. Praise Jehovah!
