Let them prayse his Name with the flute: let them sing prayses vnto him with the timbrell and harpe.

For the Lord hath pleasure in his people: he will make the meeke glorious by deliuerance.

Let the high Actes of God bee in their mouth, and a two edged sword in their hands,

7 kuti vatsive pamusoro pendudzi, uye varange marudzi avanhu,

To execute vengeance vpon the heathen, and corrections among the people:

8 vasunge madzimambo avo nengetani, namakurukota avo nezvisungo zvamatare,

To binde their Kings in chaines, and their nobles with fetters of yron,

9 kuti vaite zvavakatongwa nazvo, zvakanyorwa pamusoro pavo. Ndiko kukudzwa kwavatsvene vose. Rumbidzai Jehovha.

That they may execute vpon them the iudgement that is written: this honour shall be to all his Saintes. Prayse ye the Lord.
