A psalm

Sing Praise to the King

98 Sing to the Lord a new song,
    for he has done awesome deeds!
His right hand and powerful[a] arm[b]
    have brought him victory.
The Lord has made his deliverance known;
    he has disclosed his justice before the nations.
He has remembered his gracious love;
    his faithfulness toward the house of Israel;
        all the ends of the earth saw our God’s deliverance.

Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth!
    Break forth into joyful songs of praise!
Sing praises to the Lord with a lyre—
    with a lyre and a melodious song!
With trumpets and the sound of a ram’s horn
    shout in the presence of the Lord, the king!

Let the sea and everything in it shout,[c]
    along with the world and its inhabitants;
let the rivers clap their hands in unison;
    and let the mountains sing for joy
in the Lord’s presence, who comes to judge the earth;
He’ll judge the world righteously;
    and its people fairly.
