1 Praise the Lord!Sing to the Lord a new song,his praise in the assembly of the godly!
2 Let Israel be glad in his Maker;let the children of Zion rejoice in their King!
3 Let them praise his name with dancing,making melody to him with tambourine and lyre!
4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people;he adorns the humble with salvation.
5 Let the godly exult in glory;let them sing for joy on their beds.
6 Let the high praises of God be in their throatsand two-edged swords in their hands,
7 to execute vengeance on the nationsand punishments on the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with chainsand their nobles with fetters of iron,
9 to execute on them the judgment written! This is honor for all his godly ones. Praise the Lord!
