1Hallelujah! Sing a new song to the LORD, praising him where the godly gather together.1Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song! Praise him in the assembly of the godly!
2May Israel rejoice in its Maker, and Zion's descendants in their King!2Let Israel rejoice in their Creator! Let the people of Zion delight in their king!
3May they praise his name with dancing, chanting songs to him with tambourines and lyres.3Let them praise his name with dancing! Let them sing praises to him to the accompaniment of the tambourine and harp!
4For the LORD is pleased with his people; he beautifies the afflicted with salvation.4For the LORD takes delight in his people; he exalts the oppressed by delivering them.
5May those he loves be exalted, singing for joy on their couches.5Let the godly rejoice because of their vindication! Let them shout for joy upon their beds!
6Let high praises to God be heard in their throats, while they wield two-edged swords in their hands6May they praise God while they hold a two-edged sword in their hand,
7as they bring retribution to nations and punishment to peoples,7in order to take revenge on the nations, and punish foreigners.
8binding their kings with chains, their officials with iron bands,8They bind their kings in chains, and their nobles in iron shackles,
9and executing the judgment written against them. This is honor for all the ones he loves. Hallelujah!9and execute the judgment to which their enemies have been sentenced. All his loyal followers will be vindicated. Praise the LORD!
