Psalm 98

Praise the Judge of the World

A Psalm.

1O sing to the Lord a new song,

for he has done marvelous things.

His right hand and his holy arm

have gotten him victory.*

2The Lord has made known his victory;

he has revealed his vindication in the sight of the nations.*

3He has remembered his steadfast love and faithfulness

to the house of Israel.

All the ends of the earth have seen

the victory of our God.*

4Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth;

break forth into joyous song and sing praises.*

5Sing praises to the Lord with the lyre,

with the lyre and the sound of melody.

6With trumpets and the sound of the horn

make a joyful noise before the King, the Lord.*

7Let the sea roar and all that fills it,

the world and those who live in it.*

8Let the floods clap their hands;

let the hills sing together for joy*

9at the presence of the Lord, for he is coming

to judge the earth.

He will judge the world with righteousness

and the peoples with equity.*
