2
Let Israel be glad in ahis Maker;
Let the sons of Zion rejoice in their bKing.

Let them praise His name with adancing;
With btambourine and lyre let them sing praises to Him.

4
For Yahweh atakes pleasure in His people;
He will bbeautify the afflicted ones with salvation.


5
Let the aholy ones exult in glory;
Let them bsing for joy on their beds.

6
Let the aexaltations of God be in their throats,
And a btwo‑edged csword in their hand,

7
To aexecute vengeance on the nations
And punishments on the peoples,

8
To bind their kings awith chains
And their bhonored men with fetters of iron,

9
To aexecute on them the judgment written;
This is the bmajesty of all His holy ones.
1Praise Yah!
