5 Let the godly rejoice because of their vindication.[a]
Let them shout for joy upon their beds.[b]

and a two-edged sword in their hands,
7 in order to take[c] revenge on the nations,
and punish foreigners.
Footnotes
- Psalm 149:5 tn Heb “in glory.” Here “glory” probably refers to the “honor” that belongs to the Lord’s people as a result of their deliverance (see v. 4).
- Psalm 149:5 tn The significance of the reference to “beds” is unclear. Perhaps the point is that they should rejoice at all times, even when falling asleep or awaking.
- Psalm 149:7 tn Heb “to do.”
