Psalms

1 Praise the Lord! Sing a new song to the Lord; sing his praise in the meeting of his people.

2 Let the Israelites be happy because of God, their Maker. Let the people of Jerusalem rejoice because of their King.

3 They should praise him with dancing. They should sing praises to him with tambourines and harps.

4 The Lord is pleased with his people; he saves the humble.

5 Let those who worship him rejoice in his glory. Let them sing for joy even in bed!

6 Let them shout his praise with their two-edged swords in their hands.

7 They will punish the nations and defeat the people.

8 They will put those kings in chains and those important men in iron bands.

9 They will punish them as God has written. God is honored by all who worship him.
