Verse 5 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.

Die Heiligen sollen fröhlich sein und preisen und rühmen auf ihren Lagern.
Gozarse han los píos con gloria: Cantarán sobre sus camas.
Que sus fieles se regocijen con gloria y canten de alegría sobre sus camas.
Que les fidèles triomphent dans la gloire, Qu'ils poussent des cris de joie sur leur couche!
I santi festeggeranno con gloria, Canteranno sopra i lor letti;
Exultem os santos na glória; alegrem-se nas suas camas.
願聖民因所得的榮耀歡樂! 願他們在床上也歡呼!
