Psalm 149

1 Hallelujah!

Sing to the Lord a new song—

His praise in the assembly of the godly.

2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;

let the children of Zion rejoice in their King.

3 Let them praise His name with dancing,

and make music to Him with tambourine and harp.

4 For the Lord takes pleasure in His people;

He adorns the afflicted with salvation.

5 Let the saints exult in glory;

let them shout for joy upon their beds.

Psalms 98

4 Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;

break forth—let your cry ring out, and sing praises!

5 Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,

in melodious song with the harp.

6 With trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn

shout for joy before the Lord, the King.

Psalms 84

10 For better is one day in Your courts

than a thousand elsewhere.

I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God

than dwell in the tents of the wicked.
