A Psalm.

¶ O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he has done marvellous things; his right hand has gotten him the victory, even the arm of his holiness.

The LORD has made known his saving health; he has openly showed his righteousness in the sight of the Gentiles.

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

¶ Sing with joy unto the LORD, all the earth; lift up thy voice and rejoice and sing praises.

Sing praises unto the LORD with the harp, with the harp and the voice of a song.

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

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

Let the rivers clap their hands; let the mountains be joyful together

before the LORD; for he has come to judge the earth; with righteousness he shall judge the world and the peoples with equity.

98 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.

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

The Lord of Power and Justice

    because he has done ·miracles [wonderful acts].
By his right hand and holy arm
    he has won the victory.
The Lord has made known his ·power to save [salvation; victory];
    he has ·shown [revealed to] ·the other [L before the eyes of the] nations his ·victory for his people [righteousness].
He has remembered his ·love [loyalty]
    and his ·loyalty [faithfulness] to the ·people [L house] of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen
    God’s ·power to save [salvation; victory].

Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth;
    ·burst into songs [L break forth and sing for joy] and make ·music [a psalm].
Make music to the Lord with harps,
    with harps and the sound of singing.
Blow the trumpets and the ·sheep’s [ram’s] horns;
    shout for joy to the Lord the King [47:2; 93:1; 96:10; 97:1; 99:1; Rev. 19:6].

Let the sea and ·everything in it [its fullness] ·shout [thunder];
    let the world and everyone in it sing.
Let the rivers clap their hands;
    let the mountains sing together for joy.
Let them sing before the Lord,
    because he is coming to judge the world.
He will judge the world ·fairly [with righteousness];
    he will judge the peoples with fairness [96:13].
