| 1 | Hallelujah! Sing a new song to the LORD, praising him where the godly gather together. | Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of the godly! | Praise the LORD. Sing to the LORD a new song, his praise in the assembly of his faithful people. | |
| 2 | May Israel rejoice in its Maker, and Zion's descendants in their King! | Let Israel be glad in his Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King! | Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the people of Zion be glad in their King. | |
| 3 | May they praise his name with dancing, chanting songs to him with tambourines and lyres. | Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with tambourine and lyre! | Let them praise his name with dancing and make music to him with timbrel and harp. | |
| 4 | For the LORD is pleased with his people; he beautifies the afflicted with salvation. | For the LORD takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation. | For the LORD takes delight in his people; he crowns the humble with victory. | |
| 5 | May those he loves be exalted, singing for joy on their couches. | Let the godly exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds. | Let his faithful people rejoice in this honor and sing for joy on their beds. | |
| 6 | Let high praises to God be heard in their throats, while they wield two-edged swords in their hands | Let the high praises of God be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands, | May the praise of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands, | |
| 7 | as they bring retribution to nations and punishment to peoples, | to execute vengeance on the nations and punishments on the peoples, | to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, | |
| 8 | binding their kings with chains, their officials with iron bands, | to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron, | to bind their kings with fetters, their nobles with shackles of iron, | |
| 9 | and executing the judgment written against them. This is honor for all the ones he loves. Hallelujah! | to execute on them the judgment written! This is honor for all his godly ones. Praise the LORD! | to carry out the sentence written against them— this is the glory of all his faithful people. Praise the LORD. | |
