1 Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song, His praise in the assembly of the godly.
2 Let Israel celebrate its Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.
3 Let them praise His name with dancing and make music to Him with tambourine and lyre.
4 For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with salvation.
5 Let the godly celebrate in triumphal glory; let them shout for joy on their beds.
6 Let the exaltation of God be in their mouths and a two-edged sword in their hands,
7 inflicting vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
8 binding their kings with chains and their dignitaries with iron shackles,
9 carrying out the judgment decreed against them. This honor is for all His godly people. Hallelujah!
