Chapter 149
1הַלְלוּ־יָהּ שִׁירוּ לַֽיהֹוָה שִׁיר חָדָשׁ תְּהִלָּתוֹ בִּקְהַל חֲסִידִֽיםHallelujah. Sing to GOD a new song, sing praises in the congregation of the faithful.
2יִשְׂמַח יִשְׂרָאֵל בְּעֹשָׂיו בְּנֵֽי־צִיּוֹן יָגִילוּ בְמַלְכָּֽםLet Israel rejoice in its maker; let the children of Zion exult in their monarch.
3יְהַלְלוּ שְׁמוֹ בְמָחוֹל בְּתֹף וְכִנּוֹר יְזַמְּרוּ־לֽוֹLet them praise God’s name in dance; with hand-drum and lyre let them chant such praises.
4כִּֽי־רוֹצֶה יְהֹוָה בְּעַמּוֹ יְפָאֵר עֲנָוִים בִּישׁוּעָֽהFor GOD delights in this people, and adorns the lowly with victory.
5יַעְלְזוּ חֲסִידִים בְּכָבוֹד יְרַנְּנוּ עַל־מִשְׁכְּבוֹתָֽםLet the faithful exult in glory; let them shout for joy upon their couches,
6רוֹמְמוֹת אֵל בִּגְרוֹנָם וְחֶרֶב פִּיפִיּוֹת בְּיָדָֽםwith paeans to God in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands,
7לַעֲשׂוֹת נְקָמָה בַּגּוֹיִם תּוֹכֵחוֹת בַּלְאֻמִּֽיםto impose retribution upon the nations, punishment upon the peoples,
8לֶאְסֹר מַלְכֵיהֶם בְּזִקִּים וְנִכְבְּדֵיהֶם בְּכַבְלֵי בַרְזֶֽלbinding their kings with shackles, their nobles with chains of iron,
9לַעֲשׂוֹת בָּהֶם מִשְׁפָּט כָּתוּב הָדָר הוּא לְכׇל־חֲסִידָיו הַֽלְלוּ־יָֽהּexecuting the doom decreed against them. This is the glory of all the faithful. Hallelujah.
