PSALM 98
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
1O sing a new song to the Lord,
for wonders he hath done:
His right hand and his holy arm
him victory hath won.
2The Lord God his salvation
hath caused to be known;
His justice in the heathen's sight
he openly hath shown.
3He mindful of his grace and truth
to Isr'el's house hath been;
And the salvation of our God
all ends of th' earth have seen.
4Let all the earth unto the Lord
send forth a joyful noise;
Lift up your voice aloud to him,
sing praises, and rejoice.
5With harp, with harp, and voice of psalms,
unto JEHOVAH sing:
6With trumpets, cornets, gladly sound
before the Lord the King.
7Let seas and all their fulness roar;
the world, and dwellers there;
8Let floods clap hands, and let the hills
together joy declare
9Before the Lord; because he comes,
to judge the earth comes he:
He'll judge the world with righteousness,
his folk with equity.

Psalm 98
God rules the world #98:1 This is another Royal Psalm. The writer tells everything on earth to praise God. The Lord has always been the ruler of all things. One day everybody will see that he is the great King.
1Sing a new song to praise the Lord.
He has done great things.
He has used his own power and his holy strength
to win against his enemies.
2The Lord has shown everybody
that he has the power to save.
All the nations of the world
can see that he does what is right.
3He has kept his promise
that he made to the people of Israel.
He has continued to take care of them
with his faithful love.
Everyone who lives everywhere on the earth can see
that God has the power to save people.
4All people on the earth should shout aloud
to praise the Lord! #98:4 Verses 4-9 say that everything on earth (people, seas, rivers, mountains) should praise the Lord. God is the one who made all things, so it is right that they all should praise him.
Sing happy songs to praise him!
5Make music on your harps to praise him!
Make beautiful music!
6Make a happy sound with trumpets and horns!
Shout aloud to praise the Lord, your king!
7The sea and everything that is in it
should shout to praise the Lord!
The earth and all those who live in it
should shout as well!
8The rivers should clap their hands,
and the mountains should all sing together,
9to praise the Lord.
He is coming to judge the earth. #98:9 One day, God will come as the great judge. He is a fair and honest judge. He will not take any bribes!
He is a fair judge.
He will judge all the people of the world honestly.
