Psalms 98

1 A Psalm of David himself. Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has performed wonders. His right hand has accomplished salvation for him, with his holy arm.

A Psalm. O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

2 The Lord has made known his salvation. He has revealed his justice in the sight of the nations.

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

3 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.

He hath 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 Sing joyfully to God, all the earth. Sing and exult, and sing psalms.

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

5 Sing psalms to the Lord with stringed instruments, with strings and the voice of a psalmist,

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

6 with subtle wind instruments and the voice of woodwinds. Make a joyful noise before the Lord our king.

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

7 Let the sea be moved and all its fullness, the whole world and all who dwell in it.

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

8 The rivers will clap their hands, the mountains will exult together,

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

9 before the presence of the Lord. For he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with justice, and the peoples with fairness.

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