Sing unto the LORD a new song, _and_ his praise in the congregation of saints. ^1 2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful in their King. ^2 3 Let them praise his name in the dance: let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp. ^3 4 For the LORD takes pleasure in his people: he will beautify the meek with salvation. ^4 5 Let the saints be joyful in glory: let them sing aloud upon their beds. ^5 6 _Let_ the high _praises_ of God _be_ in their mouth, and a twoedged sword in their hand; ^6 7 To execute vengeance upon the heathen, _and_ punishments upon the people; ^7 8 To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron; ^8 9 To execute upon them the judgment written: this honor have all his saints. Praise ye the LORD. ^9
