Psalm 149

IN songs-newe made, your voice employ,
God's praise among his Saints to sing:
Let Isr'el in his maker ioye,
And, Syon tryvmph in her king.
The praises of his Name, advance;
With Harpe & Tymbrell, in the dance.

The Lord, his people doth respect;
And, with his healp, the meek arayes.
Then, let the Saints his praise affect,
And, on their bedds, gladd Voices raise.
Let in their mouths, his praise remaine:
And, two-edg'd blades, their hands retaine.

Vpon the heathen people, then,
They shall inflict avenging paines,
And, binde their kings, & noblemen,
In yron Fetters, & in Chaines.
For, to fulfill the written doome;
The Saints, thus honor'd shall become. Haleiulah.
