Psalms 149:8-9

Context

149:8 They bind 1  their kings in chains,

and their nobles in iron shackles,

149:9 and execute the judgment to which their enemies 2  have been sentenced. 3 

All his loyal followers will be vindicated. 4 

Praise the Lord!

1 tn Heb “to bind.”

2 tn Heb “they”; the referent (the enemies of the people of God) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

3 tn Heb “to do against them judgment [that] is written.”

4 tn Heb “it is honor for all his godly ones.” The judgment of the oppressive kings will bring vindication and honor to God’s people (see vv. 4-5).
