7To execute vengeance on the nations, And punishments on the peoples; | 7inflicting vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples, |
8To bind their kings with chains, And their nobles with fetters of iron; | 8binding their kings with chains and their dignitaries with iron shackles, |
9To execute on them the written judgment— This honor have all His saints. Praise the LORD! | 9carrying out the judgment decreed against them. This honor is for all his faithful people. Hallelujah! |
