Verse 3 is found in chapter 149 of Psalms. Psalm 149 combines an invitation to sing to the Lord with images of victory and judgment. Israel is to rejoice in its Creator and celebrate that God takes pleasure in his people. Double-edged swords and the execution of judgment appear within a context of liturgical and warrior language. The psalm reflects a vision in which the people’s victory is understood as participation in divine judgment upon the nations rather than merely as their own military ambition.

Sie sollen loben seinen Namen im Reigen; mit Pauken und Harfen sollen sie ihm spielen.
Alaben su nombre con corro: Con adufe y arpa a él canten.
Que alaben su nombre con danza y le canten alabanzas con pandereta y lira.
Qu'ils louent son nom avec des danses, Qu'ils le célèbrent avec le tambourin et la harpe!
Lodino il suo Nome sul flauto; Salmeggingli col tamburo e colla cetera.
Louvem o seu nome com danças; cantem-lhe o seu louvor com tamborim e harpa.
願他們跳舞讚美他的名, 擊鼓彈琴歌頌他!
