Israel Invoked to Praise the L{ORD}.

1
Praise the LORD!
Sing to the LORD a new song,
{And} His praise in the congregation of the godly ones.

2
Let Israel be glad in his Maker;
Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their King.

3
Let them praise His name with dancing;
Let them sing praises to Him with timbrel and lyre.

4
For the LORD takes pleasure in His people;
He will beautify the afflicted ones with salvation.

5
Let the godly ones exult in glory;
Let them sing for joy on their beds.

6
{Let} the high praises of God {be} in their mouth,
And a two-edged sword in their hand,

7
To execute vengeance on the nations
And punishment on the peoples,

8
To bind their kings with chains
And their nobles with fetters of iron,

9
To execute on them the judgment written;
This is an honor for all His godly ones.
Praise the LORD!
