making melody to him with tambourine and lyre.

6 Ps 66.17; Heb 4.12; Rev 1.16 Let the high praises of God be in their throats

and two-edged swords in their hands,

7to execute vengeance on the nations

and punishment on the peoples,

8to bind their kings with fetters

and their nobles with chains of iron,

9 Ps 148.14; Ezek 28.26 to execute on them the judgment decreed.

This is glory for all his faithful ones.

Praise the Lord!
