Sleepless Nights

Psalm 149:1-9

¹ Praise the LORD! Sing to the LORD a new song; sing God’s praise in the assembly of the faithful! ² Let Israel celebrate its maker; let Zion’s children rejoice in their king! ³ Let them praise God’s name with dance; let them sing God’s praise with the drum and lyre! ⁴ Because the LORD is pleased with his people, God will beautify the poor with saving help. ⁵ Let the faithful celebrate with glory; let them shout for joy on their beds. ⁶ Let the high praises of God be in their mouths and a double-edged sword in their hands, ⁷ to get revenge against the nations and punishment on the peoples, ⁸ binding their rulers in chains and their officials in iron shackles, ⁹ achieving the justice written against them. That will be an honor for all God’s faithful people. Praise the LORD!
