Psalms 149 with the Church Fathers

¹Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly. ²Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King. ³Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp. ⁴For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation. ⁵Let the saints exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds. ⁶May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a double-edged sword in their hands, ⁷to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, ⁸to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron, ⁹to execute the judgment written against them. This honor is for all His saints. Hallelujah!
