Psalm 98 :: Amplified Bible (AMP)

A Call to Praise the LORD for His Righteousness.

Psa 98:1

A [fn]Psalm.

O sing to the LORD a new song,

For He has done marvelous and wonderful things;

His right hand and His holy arm have [fn]gained the victory for Him.

Psa 98:2

The LORD has made known His salvation;

He has [openly] revealed His righteousness in the sight of the nations.

Psa 98:3

He has [graciously] remembered His lovingkindness and His faithfulness to the house of Israel;

All the ends of the earth have witnessed the salvation of our God.

Psa 98:4

Shout joyfully to the LORD, all the earth;

Shout [in jubilation] and sing for joy and sing praises.

Psa 98:5

Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre,

With the lyre and the sound of melody.

Psa 98:6

With trumpets and the sound of the horn

Shout with joy before the King, the LORD.

Psa 98:7

Let the sea thunder and roar, and all the things it contains,

The world and those who dwell in it.

Psa 98:8

Let the rivers clap their hands;

Let the mountains sing together for joy and delight

Psa 98:9

Before the LORD, for He is coming to judge the earth;

He will judge the world with righteousness

And the peoples with fairness.
