Make a Joyful Noise to the Lord

A Psalm.

98 Oh sing to the Lord (A)a new song,
    for he has done (B)marvellous things!
His (C)right hand and his holy arm
    have worked salvation for him.
The Lord has (D)made known his salvation;
    he has (E)revealed his righteousness in (F)the sight of the nations.
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.
(K)Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;
    (L)break forth into joyous song and sing praises!
Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,
    with the lyre and the (M)sound of melody!
With (N)trumpets and the sound of (O)the horn
    (P)make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord!
(Q)Let the sea roar, and (R)all that fills it;
    (S)the world and those who dwell in it!
Let the rivers (T)clap their hands;
    let (U)the hills sing for joy together
before the Lord, for he comes
    to (V)judge the earth.
He will judge the world with righteousness,
    and the peoples with equity.

The Lord Our God Is Holy

99 (W)The Lord reigns; (X)let the peoples tremble!
    He (Y)sits enthroned upon the cherubim; (Z)let the earth quake!
The Lord is (AA)great in Zion;
    he is (AB)exalted over all the peoples.
Let them praise your (AC)great and awesome name!
    (AD)Holy is he!
(AE)The King in his might (AF)loves justice.[a]
    You have established equity;
you have executed justice
    and righteousness in Jacob.
(AG)Exalt the Lord our God;
    (AH)worship at his (AI)footstool!
    (AJ)Holy is he!
(AK)Moses and Aaron were among his (AL)priests,
    Samuel also was among those who (AM)called upon his name.
    They (AN)called to the Lord, and he answered them.
In (AO)the pillar of the cloud he spoke to them;
    they (AP)kept his testimonies
    and the statute that he gave them.
O Lord our God, you answered them;
    you were (AQ)a forgiving God to them,
    but (AR)an avenger of their wrongdoings.
Exalt the Lord our God,
    and worship at his (AS)holy mountain;
    for the Lord our God is holy!

His Steadfast Love Endures For Ever

A Psalm for (AT)giving thanks.

100 (AU)Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
    (AV)Serve the Lord with gladness!
    (AW)Come into his presence with singing!
Know that (AX)the Lord, he is God!
    It is he who (AY)made us, and (AZ)we are his;[b]
    we are his (BA)people, and (BB)the sheep of his pasture.
(BC)Enter his gates with thanksgiving,
    and his (BD)courts with praise!
    Give thanks to him; (BE)bless his name!
(BF)For the Lord is good;
    his steadfast love endures for ever,
    and his (BG)faithfulness to all generations.

I Will Walk with Integrity

A Psalm of David.

101 I will sing of (BH)steadfast love and justice;
    to you, O Lord, I will make music.
I will (BI)ponder the way (BJ)that is blameless.
    Oh when will you (BK)come to me?
I will (BL)walk with (BM)integrity of heart
    within my house;
I will not set before my eyes
    anything (BN)that is worthless.
I hate the work of those who (BO)fall away;
    it shall not cling to me.
(BP)A perverse heart shall be far from me;
    I will (BQ)know nothing of evil.
Whoever slanders his neighbour (BR)secretly
    I will (BS)destroy.
Whoever has a (BT)haughty look and an (BU)arrogant heart
    I will not endure.
I will look with favour on the faithful in the land,
    that they may dwell with me;
he who walks in (BV)the way that is blameless
    shall minister to me.
No one who (BW)practises deceit
    shall dwell in my house;
no one who utters lies
    shall (BX)continue before my eyes.
(BY)Morning by morning I will destroy
    all the wicked in the land,
(BZ)cutting off all (CA)the evildoers
    from (CB)the city of the Lord.
