1 PRAISE ye the LORD. Sing unto the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints. | |
2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. | |
3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. | |
4 For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation. | |
5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. | |
6 Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand; | |
7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, and punishments upon the people; | |
8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; | |
9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honour have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD. | |
