“Praise the Lord! Sing to the Lord a new song, His praise in the assembly of the godly! Let [God’s people] be glad in their Maker; let them rejoice in their King! Let them praise His name with dancing, making melody to Him with tambourine and lyre! For the Lord takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the humble with salvation. Let the godly exult in glory! … Let the high praises of God be in their throats and two-edged swords in their hands! … O Praise the Lord!” (From Psalm 149:1–9 ESV)
