Psalms 149:3-9

3They shall praise His name with 1dancing; They shall sing praises to Him with 2tambourine and lyre.4For the Lord 3takes pleasure in His people; He will 4glorify the lowly with salvation.

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