2 Let Israel rejoice with his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful with their King.
3 Let them praise his name in the dance; let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.
4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; he will beautify the humble with saving health.
5 The merciful shall be joyful with glory; they shall sing aloud upon their beds.
6 The high praises of God shall be in their mouth and a two-edged sword in their hand,
7 to execute vengeance upon the Gentiles and punishments upon the peoples,
8 to imprison their kings with fetters and their nobles with chains of iron,
