Psalms 149 Bible Study Guide

Psalm 149 is a call to praise the Lord with singing, dancing, and musical instruments. The psalm calls Israel to rejoice in their Maker and the children of Zion to be joyful in their King. It declares that the Lord takes pleasure in his people and adorns the humble with salvation. The second half of the psalm describes the saints executing vengeance on the nations, binding their kings with chains — a picture of the final victory of God's people.
