Psalms 149:4-9
4For the Lord 1takes pleasure in His people; He will 2glorify the lowly with salvation.
5The 3godly ones shall be jubilant in glory; They shall 4sing for joy on their beds.6The 5high praises of God shall be in their 6mouths, And a 7two-edged 8sword in their hands,7To 9execute vengeance on the nations, And punishment on the peoples,8To bind their kings 10with chains, And their 11dignitaries with shackles of iron,9To 12execute against them the judgment written. This is an 13honor for all His godly ones. 14Praise 15the Lord!
