Psa 149:4For the LORD takes delight in his people; he exalts the oppressed by delivering them.
Psa 149:5Let the godly rejoice because of their vindication! Let them shout for joy upon their beds!
Psa 149:6May they praise God while they hold a two-edged sword in their hand,
Psa 149:7in order to take revenge on the nations, and punish foreigners.
Psa 149:8They bind their kings in chains, and their nobles in iron shackles,
Psa 149:9and execute the judgment to which their enemies have been sentenced. All his loyal followers will be vindicated. Praise the LORD!
