Let Israel rejoice 3in hima that made him: let the children of Zion be joyful 4in their King.

For the LORD taketh pleasure in his people: he will 6beautify the meek with salvation.

Let the saints be joyful 7in glory: let them sing aloud 8upon their beds.

8

14To bindd their kings with chains, and their nobles with fetters of iron;
