Psalms Chapter 98

A Psalm

1 Sing a new song to Yahveh

            because he’s done outstanding things;

      his right hand and holy arm have given him victory.

2 He has made his salvation known

      and revealed his goodness to the nations.

3 He has remembered his enduring love

                  and faithfulness to Israel;

      people the earth over have seen

            the deliverance our God gives.

Ps 98:1-3

4 Make a joyful sound to Yahveh, all the earth;

         break out in joyful song.

5 Sing praises to him with lyre and melody;

         6make a joyful sound with trumpets and rams’ horns

      to the King, Yahveh.

7 Let the ocean roar and everything in it,

      the world and those who live here.

8 Let the rivers clap their hands;

      let the mountains sing 9 to Yahveh

      because he’s coming to judge the world righteously

            and its people fairly.                                                  

Ps 98:4-9
