Psalm Ps. 149. This psalm calls on God’s people to praise the Lord for their special privileges.
Ps. 149:1–4 The members of the worshiping congregation call one another to praise the Lord, and to sing to him a new song. The tone is one of jubilant gladness. God’s people call him their Maker and their King, and know that he takes pleasure in his people. This idea would be unbearably arrogant if the Lord himself had not declared it (147:11; see Ex. 19:5); the psalm also clarifies that the full benefit (salvation) comes to the humble.
Ps. 149:6 This verse is startling, with the high praises of God . . . in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands (an unexpected element in corporate worship!).
Ps. 149:7–9 The faithful will do God’s work of bringing vengeance on the nations (assuming that they refuse the invitation to “praise the name of the Lord,” 148:13).
