Psalms 149:5-9

149:5 Let the godly rejoice because of their vindication!

Let them shout for joy upon their beds!

149:6 May they praise God

while they hold a two-edged sword in their hand,

149:7 in order to take revenge on the nations,

and punish foreigners.

149:8 They bind their kings in chains,

and their nobles in iron shackles,

149:9 and execute the judgment to which their enemies have been sentenced.

All his loyal followers will be vindicated.

Praise the Lord!

The one riding it was called “Faithful” and “True,” and with justice he judges and goes to war. 19:12 His eyes are like a fiery flame and there are many diadem crowns on his head. He has a name written that no one knows except himself. 19:13 He is dressed in clothing dipped in blood, and he is called the Word of God.

Revelation 20:4

20:4 Then I saw thrones and seated on them were those who had been given authority to judge. I also saw the souls of those who had been beheaded because of the testimony about Jesus and because of the word of God. These had not worshiped the beast or his image and had refused to receive his mark on their forehead or hand. They came to life and reigned with Christ for a thousand years.
