Psalms 149
1 The Prophet exhorts to praise God for his love to the Church, 5 and for that power, which he has given to the Church to rule the consciences of men.
1Praise you the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, and his praise in the congregation of saints.2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
3Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises to him with the tambourine and harp.
4For the LORD takes pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation.
5Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud on their beds.
6Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, and a two-edged sword in their hand;
7To execute vengeance on the heathen, and punishments on the people;
8To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
9To execute on them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints. Praise you the LORD.
