1. Praise the Lord. Sing a new song to the Lord. Sing praise to him in the community of his faithful people.
2. Let Israel be filled with joy because God is their Maker. Let the people of Zion be glad because he is their King.
3. Let them praise his name with dancing. Let them make music to him with harps and tambourines.
4. The Lord takes delight in his people. He saves those who aren't proud. He makes them feel like kings.
5. Let his faithful people be filled with joy because of that honor. Let them sing with joy even when they are lying in bed.
6. May they praise God with their mouths. May they hold in their hands a sword that has two edges.
