1 O sing unto the Lord a new song :
for he hath done marvellous things.
2 With his own right hand, and with his holy arm :
hath he gotten himself the victory.
3 The Lord declared his salvation :
his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.
4 He hath remembered his mercy and truth
toward the house of Israel :
and all the ends of the world have seen the salvation of our God.
5 Shew yourselves joyful unto the Lord, all ye lands :
sing, rejoice, and give thanks.
6 Praise the Lord upon the harp :
sing to the harp with a psalm of thanksgiving.
7 With trumpets also and shawms :
O shew yourselves joyful before the Lord the King.
8 Let the sea make a noise, and all that therein is :
the round world, and they that dwell therein.
9 Let the floods clap their hands,
and let the hills be joyful together before the Lord :
for he cometh to judge the earth.
10 With righteousness shall he judge the world :
and the people with equity.
Psalm 98
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son :
and to the Holy Ghost;
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be :
world without end. Amen.
