Psalms 98

The psalmist calls for a new song to be sung to the Lord, celebrating His marvelous works and salvation, which have been revealed to the nations. The Lord's mercy and truth have been shown to the house of Israel, and all the earth has seen His salvation. The psalmist urges all the earth to make a joyful noise, singing praise to the Lord with various instruments. The Lord is coming to judge the earth with righteousness and equity.

1O sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.2The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.3He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.4Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.5Sing unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.6With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.7Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.8Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together9Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
