Psalm 98

A psalm.

98 Sing a new song to the Lord.
    He has done wonderful things.
By the power of his right hand and his holy arm
    he has saved his people.
The Lord has made known his power to save.
    He has shown the nations that he does what is right.
He has shown his faithful love
    to the people of Israel.
People from one end of the earth to the other
    have seen that our God has saved us.

Shout for joy to the Lord, everyone on earth.
    Burst into joyful songs and make music.
Make music to the Lord with the harp.
    Sing and make music with the harp.
Blow the trumpets. Give a blast on the ram’s horn.
    Shout for joy to the Lord. He is the King.

Let the ocean and everything in it roar.
    Let the world and all who live in it shout.
Let the rivers clap their hands.
    Let the mountains sing together with joy.
Let them sing to the Lord,
    because he is coming to judge the earth.
He will judge the nations of the world
    in keeping with what is right and fair.

Deuteronomy 32:44-47

44 Moses spoke all the words of this song to the people. Joshua, the son of Nun, was with him. 45 Moses finished speaking all these words to all the Israelites. 46 Then he said to them, “Think carefully about all the words I have announced to you today. I want you to command your children to be careful to obey all the words of this law. 47 They aren’t just useless words for you. They are your very life. If you obey them, you will live in the land for a long time. It’s the land you are going across the Jordan River to take as your own.”

Mark 10:42-45

42 Jesus called them together. He said, “You know about those who are rulers of the Gentiles. They hold power over their people. Their high officials order them around. 43 Don’t be like that. Instead, anyone who wants to be important among you must be your servant. 44 And anyone who wants to be first must be the slave of everyone. 45 Even the Son of Man did not come to be served. Instead, he came to serve others. He came to give his life as the price for setting many people free.”
