Sing to the Lord a new song,
his praise in the assembly of his faithful people.
1 Praise the Lord.a
Sing to the Lord a new song,
his praise in the assembly of his faithful people.
2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;
let the people of Zion be glad in their King.
let the people of Zion be glad in their King.
3 Let them praise his name with dancing
and make music to him with timbrel and harp.
and make music to him with timbrel and harp.
4 For the Lord takes delight in his people;
he crowns the humble with victory.
he crowns the humble with victory.
5 Let his faithful people rejoice in this honor
and sing for joy on their beds.
and sing for joy on their beds.
6 May the praise of God be in their mouths
and a double-edged sword in their hands,
and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7 to inflict vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,
and punishment on the peoples,
8 to bind their kings with fetters,
their nobles with shackles of iron,
their nobles with shackles of iron,
9 to carry out the sentence written against them —
this is the glory of all his faithful people.
Praise the Lord.
this is the glory of all his faithful people.
Praise the Lord.
