1 Halelu-JAH. Sing unto the Lord a new song, let his praise be in the congregation of the merciful.

2 Let Israel rejoice with his Maker; let the sons of Zion be joyful with their King.

3 Let them praise his name in the dance; let them sing praises unto him with the timbrel and harp.

4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; he will beautify the humble with saving health.

5 The merciful shall be joyful with glory; they shall sing aloud upon their beds.

6 The high praises of God shall be in their mouth and a two-edged sword in their hand,

7 to execute vengeance upon the Gentiles and punishments upon the peoples,

8 to imprison their kings with fetters and their nobles with chains of iron,

9 to execute upon them the judgment written: this shall be glory for all his merciful ones. Halelu-JAH.
