Psalms 98

1 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.

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.

2 Jehovah hath made known His salvation, Before the eyes of the nations, He hath revealed His righteousness,

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

3 He hath remembered His kindness, And His faithfulness to the house of Israel, All ends of 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 Shout to Jehovah, all the earth, Break forth, and cry aloud, and sing.

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

5 Sing to Jehovah with harp, With harp, and voice of praise,

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

6 With trumpets, and voice of a cornet, Shout ye before the king Jehovah.

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

7 Roar doth the sea and its fulness, The world and the inhabitants in it.

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

8 Floods clap hand, together hills cry aloud,

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

9 Before Jehovah, For He hath come to judge the earth, He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the people in uprightness!

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.
