Psalm 149:1-9 CEB

[1] Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song; sing God’s praise in the assembly of the faithful! [2] Let Israel celebrate its maker; let Zion’s children rejoice in their king! [3] Let them praise God’s name with dance; let them sing God’s praise with the drum and lyre! [4] Because the LORD is pleased with his people, God will beautify the poor with saving help. [5] Let the faithful celebrate with glory; let them shout for joy on their beds. [6] Let the high praises of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands, [7] to get revenge against the nations and punishment on the peoples, [8] binding their rulers in chains and their officials in iron shackles, [9] achieving the justice written against them. That will be an honor for all God’s faithful people. Praise the LORD!
