Psalm 98

The Lord of Power and Justice

A psalm.

98Sing to the Lord a new song,

because he has done miracles.

By his right hand and holy arm

he has won the victory.

²The Lord has made known his power to save;

he has shown the other nations his victory for his people.

³He has remembered his love

and his loyalty to the people of Israel.

All the ends of the earth have seen

God’s power to save.

⁴Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth;

burst into songs and make music.

⁵Make music to the Lord with harps,

with harps and the sound of singing.

⁶Blow the trumpets and the sheep’s horns;

shout for joy to the Lord the King.

⁷Let the sea and everything in it shout;

let the world and everyone in it sing.

⁸Let the rivers clap their hands;

let the mountains sing together for joy.

⁹Let them sing before the Lord,

because he is coming to judge the world.

He will judge the world fairly;

he will judge the peoples with fairness.
