Halleluyah! Sing to ADONAI a new song, his praise in the assembly of the faithful.
2 O Israel, rejoice in your Maker. O people of Jerusalem, exult in your King.

Let Isra'el rejoice in their maker, let Tziyon's children take joy in their king.
3 Praise his name with dancing, accompanied by tambourine and harp.
3
Let them praise his name with dancing, make melody to him with tambourine and lyre;
4 For the LORD delights in his people; he crowns the humble with victory.
4
for ADONAI takes delight in his people, he crowns the humble with salvation.
5 Let the faithful rejoice that he honors them. Let them sing for joy as they lie on their beds.
5
Let the faithful exult gloriously, let them sing for joy on their beds.
6 Let the praises of God be in their mouths, and a sharp sword in their hands—
6
Let the high praises of God be in their throats, but a two-edged sword in their hands
7 to execute vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
7
to carry out vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with shackles and their leaders with iron chains,
8
to bind their kings with chains and put their nobles in irons,
9 to execute the judgment written against them. This is the glorious privilege of his faithful ones. Praise the LORD !
9
to execute the judgments decreed for them; for this will glorify all his faithful. Halleluyah!
