Psalms 98
98
A Psalm.
1Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song;
For he hath done marvellous things:
His right hand, and his holy arm, hath wrought salvation for him.
2Jehovah hath made known his salvation:
His righteousness hath he openly showed in the sight of the nations.
3He hath remembered his lovingkindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel:
All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4Make a joyful noise unto Jehovah, all the earth:
Break forth and sing for joy, yea, sing praises.
5Sing praises unto Jehovah with the harp;
With the harp and the voice of melody.
6With trumpets and sound of cornet
Make a joyful noise before the King, Jehovah.
7Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;
The world, and they that dwell therein;
8Let the floods clap their hands;
Let the hills sing for joy together
9Before Jehovah; for he cometh to judge the earth:
He will judge the world with righteousness,
And the peoples with equity.

The Coming of God
1A psalm.
I
Sing a new song to the Lord,
for he has done marvelous deeds.#Ps 96:1; Is 42:10.
His right hand and holy arm
have won the victory.#Marvelous deeds…victory: the conquest of all threats to the peaceful existence of Israel, depicted in the Psalms variously as a cosmic force such as sea, or nations bent on Israel’s destruction, or evildoers seemingly triumphant. His right hand and holy arm: God is pictured as a powerful warrior.#Is 59:16; 63:5.
2The Lord has made his victory known;
has revealed his triumph in the sight of the nations,
3He has remembered his mercy and faithfulness
toward the house of Israel.
All the ends of the earth have seen
the victory of our God.
II
4Shout with joy to the Lord, all the earth;
break into song; sing praise.
5Sing praise to the Lord with the lyre,
with the lyre and melodious song.
6With trumpets and the sound of the horn
shout with joy to the King, the Lord.#Ps 47:6–7.
III
7Let the sea and what fills it resound,#Ps 96:11.
the world and those who dwell there.
8Let the rivers clap their hands,
the mountains shout with them for joy,#Is 44:23; 55:12.
9#Ps 96:13.Before the Lord who comes,
who comes to govern the earth,#Ps 67:5.
To govern the world with justice
and the peoples with fairness.
