1Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: let his praise be in the church of the saints.
1Hallelujah! Sing to the LORD a new song— His praise in the assembly of the godly.
2Let Israel rejoice in him that made him: and let the children of Sion be joyful in their king.
2Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.
3Let them praise his name in choir: let them sing to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.
3Let them praise His name with dancing, and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.
4For the Lord is well pleased with his people: and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.
4For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.
5The saints shall rejoice in glory: they shall be joyful in their beds.
5Let the saints exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their beds.
6The high praise of God shall be in their mouth: and two-edged swords in their hands:
6May the high praises of God be in their mouths, and a double-edged sword in their hands,
7To execute vengeance upon the nations, chastisements among the people:
7to inflict vengeance on the nations and punishment on the peoples,
8To bind their kings with fetters, and their nobles with manacles of iron.
8to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with shackles of iron,
9To execute upon them the judgment that is written: this glory is to all his saints. Alleluia.
9to execute the judgment written against them. This honor is for all His saints. Hallelujah!
