Psalm 149 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

Israel Invoked to Praise the LORD.

Psa 149:1

Praise the LORD!

Sing to the LORD a new song,

And praise Him in the congregation of His godly ones (believers).

Psa 149:2

Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;

Let Zion’s children rejoice in their King.

Psa 149:3

Let them praise His name with dancing;

Let them sing praises to Him with the tambourine and lyre.

Psa 149:4

For the LORD takes pleasure in His people;

He will beautify the humble with salvation.

Psa 149:5

Let the godly ones exult in glory;

Let them sing for joy on their beds.

Psa 149:6

Let the high praises of God be in their throats,

And a two-edged sword in their hands,

Psa 149:7

To execute vengeance on the nations

And punishment on the peoples,

Psa 149:8

To bind their kings with chains

And their nobles with fetters of iron,

Psa 149:9

To execute on them the judgment written.

This is the honor for all His godly ones.

Praise the LORD! (Hallelujah!)
