1902 Rotherham's Emphasized Bible (EBR)

1 The prophet exhorteth to praise God for his love to the Church, 5 and for that power which he hath given to the Church.

149:1 ¶ Praise ye Yah, Sing to Yahweh a song that is new, his praise in the convocation of the men of lovingkindness.

149:2 Let Israel rejoice in him that made him, Let the sons of Zion exult in their king;

149:3 Let them praise his Name in the dance, with timbrel and lyre, Let them make music to him.

149:4 For Yahweh is taking pleasure in his people, He will beautify humbled ones with victory.

149:5 Let the men of lovingkindness exult as they glory, Let them shout aloud upon their beds:

149:6 ¶ The high songs of GOD be in their throat, and a two-edged sword in their hand:

149:7 To execute an avenging among the nations, rebukes among the peoples:

149:8 To bind their kings with fetters, and their honoured ones with iron bands:

149:9 To execute upon them the sentence written, An honour, shall it be to all his men of lovingkindness. Praise ye Yah!
