CXLIX ISRAEL INVOKED TO PRAISE JEHOVAH
[1] PRAISE〖Heb. Hallelujah.〗 ye Jehovah.
Sing unto Jehovah a new song,
And his praise in the assembly of the 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 timbrel and harp.
[4] For Jehovah taketh pleasure in his people:
He will beautify the meek with salvation.〖Or, victory.〗
[5] Let the saints exult in glory:
Let them sing for joy upon their beds.
[6] Let the high praises of God be in their mouth,〖Heb. throat.〗
And a two-edged sword in their hand;
[7] To execute vengeance upon the nations,
And punishments upon the peoples;
[8] To bind their kings with chains,
And their nobles with fetters of iron;
[9] To execute upon them the judgment written:
This〖Or, He is the honor of all his saints.〗 honor have all his saints.
Praise〖Heb.Hallelujah.〗 ye Jehovah.
