Cantate Domino. Ps.149.N.

An exhortation to the Church, to praise the Lord for his victory and conquest that he giveth his Saints against all man’s power.

Sing this as the 145 Psalm.

Sing ye unto the Lord our God
a new rejoicing song:
And let the praise of him be heard
his holy Saints among.
 
2 Let Israel rejoice in him
that made him of nothing,
And let the seed of Zion eke
be joyful in their King.
 
3 Let them sound praise with voice of flute
unto his holy name:
And with the Timbrel and the Harp,
sing praises of the same.
 
4 For why? the Lord his pleasure all
hath in his people set:
And by deliverance he will raise
the meek to glory great.
 
5 With glory and with honor both
let all the Saints rejoice:
And now aloud upon their beds
advance their signing voice.
 
6 And in their mouths let be the acts
of God the mighty Lord:
And in their hands eke let them bear
a double-edged sword.
 
7 To plague the heathen, and correct
the people with theirs hands:
 
8 To bind their stately kings in chains
their Lords in iron bands.
 
9 To execute on them the doom
that written is before:
This honor all his Saints shall have,
praise ye the Lord therefore.
