Psalmen 149

1Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: let his praise be in the church of the saints. 2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king. 3Let them praise his name in choir: let them sing to him with the timbrel and the psaltery. 4For the Lord is well pleased with his people: and he will exalt the meek unto salvation. 5The saints shall rejoice in glory: they shall be joyful in their beds. 6The high praise of God shall be in their mouth: and two-edged swords in their hands: 7To execute vengeance upon the nations, chastisements among the people: 8To bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron.
