A Song of Praise

10 Sing a new song to the Lord;(A)
sing his praise from the ends of the earth,
you who go down to the sea with all that fills it,(B)
you coasts and islands with your[a] inhabitants.
11 Let the desert and its cities shout,
the settlements where Kedar dwells cry aloud.(C)
Let the inhabitants of Sela sing for joy;(D)
let them cry out from the mountaintops.
12 Let them give glory to the Lord
and declare his praise in the coasts and islands.
13 The Lord advances like a warrior;
he stirs up his zeal like a soldier.(E)
He shouts, he roars aloud,
he prevails over his enemies.

A Song of Praise to the Lord

10 Sing a new song to the Lord!
    Sing his praises from the ends of the earth!
Sing, all you who sail the seas,
    all you who live in distant coastlands.
11 Join in the chorus, you desert towns;
    let the villages of Kedar rejoice!
Let the people of Sela sing for joy;
    shout praises from the mountaintops!
12 Let the whole world glorify the Lord;
    let it sing his praise.
13 The Lord will march forth like a mighty hero;
    he will come out like a warrior, full of fury.
He will shout his battle cry
    and crush all his enemies.
