Psalms 149:3-9

3Let them praise His name with 1dancing; Let them sing praises to Him with 2timbrel and lyre.4For the Lord 3takes pleasure in His people; He will 4beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

5Let the 5godly ones exult in glory; Let them 6sing for joy on their beds.6Let the 7high praises of God be in their 8mouth, And a 9two-edged 10sword in their hand,7To 11execute vengeance on the nations And punishment on the peoples,8To bind their kings 12with chains And their 13nobles with fetters of iron,9To 14execute on them the judgment written; This is an 15honor for all His godly ones. 16Praise 17the Lord!
