Sing in the presence of the Lord a new psalm; his praise is in the assembly of the pious. They of the house of Israel will rejoice in their maker; the children of Zion will exult in their kings. They will praise his name with dances; with drums and harps they will make music to him. For the pleasure of the Lord is in his people; he will glorify the humble with redemption. The pious will revel in glory; they will meditate upon their beds. The psalms of God are in their throats, and in their hands like a two-edged sword. To wreak vengeance on the Gentiles, rebuke among the nations. To bind their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron. To execute on them the judgment written in the Torah; this is glory for all his pious ones. Hallelujah!
