PSALMS 诗篇149

1Praise the Lord . Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints.
2Let Israel rejoice in their Maker¹; let the people of Zion be glad in their King.
3Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with tambourine² and harp³.
4For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble⁴ with salvation⁵.
5Let the saints rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds.
6May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7to inflict⁶ vengeance⁷ on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
8to bind⁸ their kings with fetters⁹, their nobles with shackles¹⁰ of iron,
9to carry out the sentence written against them. This is the glory of all his saints. Praise the Lord .
