In context
1Hallelujah! 2Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; 3Let them praise His name with dancing, 4For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; 5Let the saints exult in glory; 6May the high praises of God be in their mouths, 7to inflict vengeance on the nations 8to bind their kings with chains 9to execute the judgment written against them.
