Kabbalah Mazmur 149:6: Ohr Ne'erav & Sha'arei Kedusha

רוֹמְמ֣וֹת אֵ֭ל בִּגְרוֹנָ֑ם וְחֶ֖רֶב פִּֽיפִיּ֣וֹת בְּיָדָֽם׃

Biarlah pujian yang meninggikan Allah ada di kerongkongan mereka, dan pedang bermata dua di tangan mereka.

Ohr Ne'erav

Does not wisdom cry out (Prov. 8:1) to the remnants of Israel to observe discretion (Prov. 2:11) [regarding] the secrets of wisdom (Job 11:6)? They praise the Lord with their throats (Ps. 149:6). In their right hand is fullness of joy (Ps. 16:11) and pleasantness. They direct their tongue with the pen of a ready writer (Ps. 45:2) who has studied and understood. He is frightened by the fools among the people. They walk in darkness, refined in the smelter of poverty and much servitude (Lam. 1:3) bordered with cords (Esther 1:6) of mockery, folly, and ignorance in the captivity of this host (Obad. 1:20) when vileness is exalted among the sons of men (Ps. 12:9). They are ignorant of the time to plant the tree of life in the midst of the garden (Gen. 2:9)

Sha'arei Kedusha

Reciting the Shema upon retiring to sleep: Know what our sages, of blessed memory, stated,725Zohar III 212a-b “One who recites the Shema upon his bed kills myriads of destructive forces found at night, particularly when his soul ascends above. This is as stated,726Psalms 149:5-6 ‘Let the pious (Chassidim) exalt in glory, let them sing joyously upon their beds. The praises of exaltation of God are in their throats, and a double-edged sword is in their hand.’”
