Psalms 98

1 A Psalm of David himself. Sing to the Lord a new song, for he has performed wonders. His right hand has accomplished salvation for him, with his holy arm.

A Melody. Sing to Yahweh, a song that is new, For, wonderful things, hath he done, His own right hand and his holy arm, have brought him salvation.

2 The Lord has made known his salvation. He has revealed his justice in the sight of the nations.

Yahweh, hath made known, his salvation, Before the eyes of the nations, hath he revealed his righteousness;

3 He has remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel. All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness towards the house of Israel, —All the ends of the earth, have seen, the salvation of our God.

4 Sing joyfully to God, all the earth. Sing and exult, and sing psalms.

Shout aloud to Yahweh, all the earth, Break forth and make a joyful noise and sweep the strings;

5 Sing psalms to the Lord with stringed instruments, with strings and the voice of a psalmist,

Sweep the strings to Yahweh, With the lyre, With the lyre, and the voice of melody;

6 with subtle wind instruments and the voice of woodwinds. Make a joyful noise before the Lord our king.

With trumpets and the sound of a horn, Shout aloud, before the king—Yahweh.

7 Let the sea be moved and all its fullness, the whole world and all who dwell in it.

Let the sea, roar, and the fulness thereof, The world, and they who dwell therein;

8 The rivers will clap their hands, the mountains will exult together,

Let, the floods, clap their hands, Together, let, the mountains, make a joyful noise,

9 before the presence of the Lord. For he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with justice, and the peoples with fairness.

Before Yahweh, for he is coming—to judge the earth, —He will judge the world, in righteousness, And the peoples, with equity.
