1 Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song: His praise is in the assembly of the saints.2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him; And let the children of Zion exult in their king.3 Let them praise his name in the dance: Let them sing praises to him with timbrel and psaltery.4 For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; And will exalt the meek with salvation.5 The saints shall rejoice in glory; And shall exult on their beds.6 The high praises of God shall be in their throat, And two-edged swords in their hands;7 To execute vengeance on the nations, And punishments among the peoples;8 To bind their kings with fetters, And their nobles with manacles of iron;9 To execute on them the judgment written: This honor have all his saints.
