1 Halleluyah! Sing to ADONAI a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful.

Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, And His praise in the assembly of saints.
2 Let Isra'el rejoice in their maker, let Tziyon's children take joy in their king.
2
Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.
3 Let them praise his name with dancing, make melody to him with tambourine and lyre;
3
Let them praise His name with the dance; Let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp.
4 for ADONAI takes delight in his people, he crowns the humble with salvation.
4
For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He will beautify the humble with salvation.
5 Let the faithful exult gloriously, let them sing for joy on their beds.
5
Let the saints be joyful in glory; Let them sing aloud on their beds.
6 Let the high praises of God be in their throats, but a two-edged sword in their hands
6
Let the high praises of God be in their mouth, And a two-edged sword in their hand,
7 to carry out vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
7
To execute vengeance on the nations, And punishments on the peoples;
8 to bind their kings with chains and put their nobles in irons,
8
To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron;
9 to execute the judgments decreed for them; for this will glorify all his faithful. Halleluyah!
9
To execute on them the written judgment-- This honor have all His saints. Praise the Lord!
