Verse 7 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.
