Psalm 98

A psalm.

Sing a new song to the Lord,
    for he has done wonderful deeds.
His right hand has won a mighty victory;
    his holy arm has shown his saving power!
The Lord has announced his victory
    and has revealed his righteousness to every nation!
He has remembered his promise to love and be faithful to Israel.
    The ends of the earth have seen the victory of our God.

Shout to the Lord, all the earth;
    break out in praise and sing for joy!
Sing your praise to the Lord with the harp,
    with the harp and melodious song,
with trumpets and the sound of the ram’s horn.
    Make a joyful symphony before the Lord, the King!

Let the sea and everything in it shout his praise!
    Let the earth and all living things join in.
Let the rivers clap their hands in glee!
    Let the hills sing out their songs of joy
before the Lord,
    for he is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the world with justice,
    and the nations with fairness.

A psalm

Sing Praise to the King

98 Sing to the Lord a new song,
    for he has done awesome deeds!
His right hand and powerful[a] arm[b]
    have brought him victory.
The Lord has made his deliverance known;
    he has disclosed his justice before the nations.
He has remembered his gracious love;
    his faithfulness toward the house of Israel;
        all the ends of the earth saw our God’s deliverance.

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
    Break forth into joyful songs of praise!
Sing praises to the Lord with a lyre—
    with a lyre and a melodious song!
With trumpets and the sound of a ram’s horn
    shout in the presence of the Lord, the king!

Let the sea and everything in it shout,[c]
    along with the world and its inhabitants;
let the rivers clap their hands in unison;
    and let the mountains sing for joy
in the Lord’s presence, who comes to judge the earth;
He’ll judge the world righteously;
    and its people fairly.
