Psalms 149

1 Praise Yahweh! Sing to Yahweh a new song, his praise in the assembly of the saints.

הַלְלוּ ־ יָהּ ׀ שִׁירוּ לַֽיהֹוָה שִׁיר חָדָשׁ תְּהִלָּתוֹ בִּקְהַל חֲסִידִֽים׃

2 Let Israel rejoice in him who made them. Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעֹשָׂיו בְּנֵֽי־צִיּוֹן יָגִילוּ בְמַלְכָּֽם׃

3 Let them praise his name in the dance! Let them sing praises to him with tambourine and harp!

יְהַלְלוּ שְׁמוֹ בְמָחוֹל בְּתֹף וְכִנּוֹר יְזַמְּרוּ־לֽוֹ׃

4 For Yahweh takes pleasure in his people. He crowns the humble with salvation.

כִּֽי־רוֹצֶה יְהֹוָה בְּעַמּוֹ יְפָאֵר עֲנָוִים בִּישׁוּעָֽה׃

5 Let the saints rejoice in honor. Let them sing for joy on their beds.

יַעְלְזוּ חֲסִידִים בְּכָבוֹד יְרַנְּנוּ עַל־מִשְׁכְּבוֹתָֽם׃

6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a two-edged sword in their hand,

רוֹמְמוֹת אֵל בִּגְרוֹנָם וְחֶרֶב פִּיפִיּוֹת בְּיָדָֽם׃

7 to execute vengeance on the nations, and punishments on the peoples;

לַעֲשׂוֹת נְקָמָה בַּגּוֹיִם תּוֹכֵחוֹת בַּלְאֻמִּֽים׃

8 to bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;

לֶאְסֹר מַלְכֵיהֶם בְּזִקִּים וְנִכְבְּדֵיהֶם בְּכַבְלֵי בַרְזֶֽל׃

9 to execute on them the written judgment. All his saints have this honor. Praise Yah!

לַעֲשׂוֹת בָּהֶם ׀ מִשְׁפָּט כָּתוּב הָדָר הוּא לְכׇל־חֲסִידָיו הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּ׃
