Psalms 149

¹ Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly.

הַלְלוּ יָהּ שִׁירוּ לַֽיהוָה שִׁיר חָדָשׁ תְּהִלָּתוֹ בִּקְהַל חֲסִידִֽים׃

² Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.

יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעֹשָׂיו בְּנֵֽי־צִיּוֹן יָגִילוּ בְמַלְכָּֽם׃

³ Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.

יְהַֽלְלוּ שְׁמוֹ בְמָחוֹל בְּתֹף וְכִנּוֹר יְזַמְּרוּ־לֽוֹ׃

⁴ For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.

כִּֽי־רוֹצֶה יְהוָה בְּעַמּוֹ יְפָאֵר עֲנָוִים בִּישׁוּעָֽה׃

⁵ Let the saints exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.

יַעְלְזוּ חֲסִידִים בְּכָבוֹד יְרַנְּנוּ עַל־מִשְׁכְּבוֹתָֽם׃

⁶ May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a double-edged sword in their hands,

רוֹמְמוֹת אֵל בִּגְרוֹנָם וְחֶרֶב פִּֽיפִיּוֹת בְּיָדָֽם׃

⁷ to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,

לַעֲשׂוֹת נְקָמָה בַּגּוֹיִם תּֽוֹכֵחֹת בַּל־אֻמִּֽים׃

⁸ to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron,

לֶאְסֹר מַלְכֵיהֶם בְּזִקִּים וְנִכְבְּדֵיהֶם בְּכַבְלֵי בַרְזֶֽל׃

⁹ to execute the judgment written against them. This honor is for all His saints. Hallelujah!

לַעֲשׂוֹת בָּהֶם מִשְׁפָּט כָּתוּב הָדָר הוּא לְכָל־חֲסִידָיו הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
