Bringing Justice (Judges 3:7-30)

Psalm 149 New International Version (NIV) 1 Praise the Lord.[a] Sing to the Lord a new song,     his praise in the assembly of his faithful people. 2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;     let the people of Zion be glad in their King. 3 Let them praise his name with dancing     and make music to him with timbrel and harp. 4 For the Lord takes delight in his people;     he crowns the humble with victory. 5 Let his faithful people rejoice in this honor     and sing for joy on their beds. 6 May the praise of God be in their mouths     and a double-edged sword in their hands, 7 to inflict vengeance on the nations     and punishment on the peoples, 8 to bind their kings with fetters,     their nobles with shackles of iron, 9 to carry out the sentence written against them—     this is the glory of all his faithful people. Praise the Lord.
