< Psalms 98 >
1 A psalm. Sing the Lord a new song, for he has done wonderful things: by his powerful right hand and his strong arm he has won the victory.
A Psalm. Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, For wonders He hath done, Given salvation to Him hath His right hand and His holy arm.
2 The Lord has revealed his salvation to the nations, and shown them his goodness.
Jehovah hath made known His salvation, Before the eyes of the nations, He hath revealed His righteousness,
3 He has not forgotten to show his trustworthy love and faithfulness to the descendants of Israel. Our God has made his salvation clear to the ends of the earth.
He hath remembered His kindness, And His faithfulness to the house of Israel, All ends of earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Everyone on earth, shout in triumph to the Lord; break out in joyful songs of praise!
Shout to Jehovah, all the earth, Break forth, and cry aloud, and sing.
5 Sing praises to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and melodious voices;
Sing to Jehovah with harp, With harp, and voice of praise,
6 with trumpets and the sound of the ram's horn sing in happiness before the Lord, the King.
With trumpets, and voice of a cornet, Shout ye before the king Jehovah.
7 Let the sea and everything in it shout with praise, together with the earth and everything living in it.
Roar doth the sea and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.
8 Let the rivers celebrate, let the hills join in the celebration
Floods clap hand, together hills cry aloud,
9 before the Lord, for he is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world justly, and the nations fairly.
Before Jehovah, For He hath come to judge the earth, He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the people in uprightness!
