And a two-edged sword in their hand,
To execute vengeance on the nations,
And punishments on the peoples;

Psalm 149

1 Praise the Lord!

   Sing to the Lord a new song,

   And His praise in the assembly of saints.

2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;

   Let the children of Zion be joyful in their King.

3 Let them praise His name with the dance;

   Let them sing praises to Him with the timbrel and harp.

4 For the Lord takes pleasure in His people;

   He will beautify the humble with salvation.

5 Let the saints be joyful in glory;

   Let them sing aloud 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 punishments on the peoples;

8 | To bind their kings with chains,

   And their nobles with fetters of iron;

9 To execute on them the written judgment—

   This honor have all His saints.

   Praise the Lord!
