Psalms 98

1 A Psalm. O make a new song to the Lord, because he has done works of wonder; with his right hand, and with his holy arm, he has overcome.

O sing to the LORD a new song; for he has done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, has gotten him the victory.

2 The Lord has given to all the knowledge of his salvation; he has made clear his righteousness in the eyes of the nations.

The LORD has made known his salvation: his righteousness has he openly showed in the sight of the heathen.

3 He has kept in mind his mercy and his unchanging faith to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

He has remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

4 Let all the earth send out a glad cry to the Lord; sounding with a loud voice, and praising him with songs of joy.

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

5 Make melody to the Lord with instruments of music; with a corded instrument and the voice of song.

Sing to the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

6 With wind instruments and the sound of the horn, make a glad cry before the Lord, the King.

With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.

7 Let the sea be thundering, with all its waters; the world, and all who are living in it;

Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

8 Let the streams make sounds of joy with their hands; let the mountains be glad together,

Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together

9 Before the Lord, for he has come as judge of the earth; judging the world in righteousness, and giving true decisions for the peoples.

Before the LORD; for he comes to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
