God Adorns the Humble With Salvation - Psalm 149: 1-9

Praise the Lord! Sing to Him a new song only the godly can do this fully right rejoice evermore in your great king feast on His beauty such a beautiful sight Be always ever with a heavenly vision even in your beds be full of joy fill your throat with high praise handle the divine sword set to employ So then God's judgment be cast bringing vengeance on the nations the people then to be punished execute them to the proper occasion The Lord always shows love to His own His personal pleasure brings this about humility shown on His own elect casting His praise with a mighty shout God's gift of salvation to the humble a certain trait of the Lord's redeemed His saved company knows in their heart God's adornment is eternally beamed (Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, his praise in the assembly of the godly! Let Israel be glad in his Maker; let the children of Zion rejoice in their King! Let them praise his name with dancing, making melody to him with tambourine and lyre! For the Lord takes pleasure in his people; he adorns the humble with salvation. Let the godly exult in glory; let them sing for joy on their beds. Let the high praises of God be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands, to execute vengeance on the nations and punishments on the peoples, to bind their kings with chains and their nobles with fetters of iron, to execute on them the judgment written! This is honor for all his godly ones. Praise the Lord!) Psalm 149: 1-9 (ESV)
