Sing to the LORD a New Song 1Hallelujah (Praise the LORD)!a Sing to the LORD {YHWH} a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly. 2Let Israel (he wrestles with God) 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 {YHWH} 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!
