Psalms 149:2

¹Shout for joy to the LORD, all you lands! ²Serve the LORD with gladness. Come before his presence with singing. ³Know that the LORD, he is God. It is he who has made us, and we are his. We are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

⁶Oh come, let’s worship and bow down. Let’s kneel before the LORD, our Maker,

⁵For your Maker is your husband; the LORD of Armies is his name. The Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer. He will be called the God of the whole earth.

⁷How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, who publishes peace, who brings good news, who proclaims salvation, who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!”

⁶For you are a holy people to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his own possession, above all peoples who are on the face of the earth. ⁷The LORD didn’t set his love on you nor choose you, because you were more in number than any people; for you were the fewest of all peoples;

²³“Be glad then, you children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD, your God; for he gives you the early rain in just measure, and he causes the rain to come down for you, the early rain and the latter rain, as before.

⁹Rejoice greatly, daughter of Zion! Shout, daughter of Jerusalem! Behold, your King comes to you! He is righteous, and having salvation; lowly, and riding on a donkey, even on a colt, the foal of a donkey.

³⁸saying, “Blessed is the King who comes in the name of the Lord!Peace in heaven, and glory in the highest!”

¹⁰But no one says, ‘Where is God my Maker, who gives songs in the night,

³Praise the LORD,^[+] for the LORD is good. Sing praises to his name, for that is pleasant. ⁴For the LORD^[+] has chosen Jacob for himself, Israel for his own possession.
