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!
