• Psalm 149
• Cantate Domino

chant

¹ Hallelujah!

Sing to the LORD a new song; *

sing his praise in the congregation of the faithful.

² Let Israel rejoice in his Maker; *

let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

³ Let them praise his Name in the dance; *

let them sing praise to him with timbrel and harp.

⁴ For the LORD takes pleasure in his people *

and adorns the poor with victory.

⁵ Let the faithful rejoice in triumph; *

let them be joyful on their beds.

⁶ Let the praises of God be in their throat *

and a two-edged sword in their hand;

⁷ To wreak vengeance on the nations *

and punishment on the peoples;

⁸ To bind their kings in chains *

and their nobles with links of iron;

⁹ To inflict on them the judgment decreed; *

this is glory for all his faithful people.

Hallelujah!
