Make a Joyful Noise to the Lord
A Psalm.
98 Oh sing to the Lord (A)a new song,
for he has done (B)marvelous things!
His (C)right hand and his holy arm
have worked salvation for him.
2 The Lord has (D)made known his salvation;
he has (E)revealed his righteousness in (F)the sight of the nations.
3 He has (G)remembered his (H)steadfast love and faithfulness
to the house of Israel.
All (I)the ends of the earth have seen
(J)the salvation of our God.
4 (K)Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;
(L)break forth into joyous song and sing praises!
5 Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
with the lyre and the (M)sound of melody!
6 With (N)trumpets and the sound of (O)the horn
(P)make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord!
7 (Q)Let the sea roar, and (R)all that fills it;
(S)the world and those who dwell in it!

let (U)the hills sing for joy together
9 before the Lord, for he comes
to (V)judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness,
and the peoples with equity.

Rejoicing in Heaven
19 After this I heard (A)what seemed to be the loud voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out,
“Hallelujah!
(B)Salvation and glory and power belong to our God,
2 for (C)his judgments are true and just;
for he has judged (D)the great prostitute
who corrupted the earth with her immorality,
and (E)has avenged on her the blood of his servants.”
3 Once more they cried out,
“Hallelujah!
(F)The smoke from her goes up forever and ever.”
4 And (G)the twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who was seated on the throne, saying, “Amen. Hallelujah!” 5 And from the throne came a voice saying,
The Marriage Supper of the Lamb
6 Then I heard what seemed to be (J)the voice of a great multitude, like (K)the roar of many waters and (L)like the sound of mighty peals of thunder, crying out,
“Hallelujah!
For the Lord our God
the Almighty (M)reigns.

15 Then (A)the seventh angel blew his trumpet, and (B)there were loud voices in heaven, saying, (C)“The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of (D)his Christ, and (E)he shall reign forever and ever.” 16 And the twenty-four elders (F)who sit on their thrones before God (G)fell on their faces and worshiped God, 17 saying,
“We give thanks to you, Lord God Almighty,
(H)who is and who was,
for you have taken your great power
and (I)begun to reign.
18 The nations raged,
but (J)your wrath came,
and (K)the time for the dead to be judged,
and for rewarding your servants, the prophets and saints,
and (L)those who fear your name,
both small and great,
and (M)for destroying the destroyers of the earth.”

all you who love her;
rejoice with her in joy,
all you who mourn over her;
11 that you may nurse and be satisfied
from her consoling breast;
that you may drink deeply with delight
from her glorious abundance.”[a]
12 For thus says the Lord:
(B)“Behold, I will extend peace to her like a river,
and the glory of the nations like an overflowing stream;
and (C)you shall nurse, you shall be carried upon her hip,
and bounced upon her knees.
13 As one whom his mother comforts,
so (D)I will comfort you;
you shall be comforted in Jerusalem.
14 You shall see, and your heart shall rejoice;
(E)your bones shall flourish like the grass;
and (F)the hand of the Lord shall be known to his servants,
and he shall show his indignation against his enemies.
