Alleluia. Sing to the Lord a new song. His praise is in the Church of the saints.
Alleluja. Cantate Domino canticum novum; laus ejus in ecclesia sanctorum.

Let Israel rejoice in him who made them, and let the sons of Zion exult in their king.
Lætetur Israël in eo qui fecit eum, et filii Sion exsultent in rege suo.
- 3
Let them praise his name in chorus. Let them sing psalms to him with the timbrel and the psaltery.
Laudent nomen ejus in choro; in tympano et psalterio psallant ei.
- 4
For the Lord is well pleased with his people, and he will exalt the meek unto salvation.
Quia beneplacitum est Domino in populo suo, et exaltabit mansuetos in salutem.
- 5
The saints will exult in glory. They will rejoice upon their couches.
Exsultabunt sancti in gloria; lætabuntur in cubilibus suis.
- 6
The exultations of God will be in their throat, and two-edged swords will be in their hands:
Exaltationes Dei in gutture eorum, et gladii ancipites in manibus eorum:
- 7
to obtain vindication among the nations, chastisements among the peoples,
ad faciendam vindictam in nationibus, increpationes in populis;
- 8
to bind their kings with shackles and their nobles with manacles of iron,
ad alligandos reges eorum in compedibus, et nobiles eorum in manicis ferreis;
- 9
to obtain judgment over them, as it has been written. This is glory for all his saints. Alleluia.
ut faciant in eis judicium conscriptum: gloria hæc est omnibus sanctis ejus. Alleluja.
