Morning prayer, Tuesday 7th October 2025<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Psalm 149
The joy of God\u2019s holy people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let the sons of the Church, the children of the new people, rejoice in Christ, their King<\/em> (Hesychius).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sing a new song to the Lord, *
his praise in the assembly of the faithful.
Let Israel rejoice in its maker, *
let Zion\u2019s sons exult in their king.
Let them praise his name with dancing *
and make music with timbrel and harp.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Lord takes delight in his people. *
He crowns the poor with salvation.
Let the faithful rejoice in their glory, *
shout for joy and take their rest.
Let the praise of God be on their lips *
and a two-edged sword in their hand,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to deal out vengeance to the nations *
and punishment on all the peoples;
to bind their kings in chains *
and their nobles in fetters of iron;
to carry out the sentence pre-ordained; *
this honor is for all his faithful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Glory to the Father, and to the Son, *
and to the Holy Spirit:
as it was in the beginning, is now, *
and will be for ever. Amen.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":16800,"template":"","rizors":[],"yoast_head":"\nFor the Lord takes delight in his people - Behold<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/behold.mt\/en\/talba-bis-salmi\/for-the-lord-takes-delight-in-his-people\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"For the Lord takes delight in his people - Behold\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Morning prayer, Tuesday 7th October 2025 Psalm 149The joy of God\u2019s holy people.
