Psalm 149 :: Legacy Standard Bible (LSB)

Yahweh Takes Pleasure in His People

Psa 149:1

[fn]Praise Yah!

Sing to Yahweh a new song,

His praise in the assembly of the holy ones.

Psa 149:2

Let Israel be glad in his Maker;

Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King.

Psa 149:3

Let them praise His name with dancing;

With tambourine and lyre let them sing praises to Him.

Psa 149:4

For Yahweh takes pleasure in His people;

He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

Psa 149:5

Let the holy ones exult in glory;

Let them sing for joy on their beds.

Psa 149:6

Let the exaltations of God be in their throats,

And a two-edged sword in their hand,

Psa 149:7

To execute vengeance on the nations

And punishments on the peoples,

Psa 149:8

To bind their kings with chains

And their honored men with fetters of iron,

Psa 149:9

To execute on them the judgment written;

This is the majesty of all His holy ones.

[fn]Praise Yah!
