Psalm 98 (NIV)

¹ Sing to the LORD a new song,
      for he has done marvelous things;

      his right hand and his holy arm
      have worked salvation for him.
² The LORD has made his salvation known
      and revealed his righteousness to the nations.
³ He has remembered his love
      and his faithfulness to the house of Israel;
      all the ends of the earth have seen
      the salvation of our God.

⁴ Shout for joy to the LORD, all the earth,
      burst into jubilant song with music;
⁵ make music to the LORD with the harp,
      with the harp and the sound of singing,
⁶ with trumpets and the blast of the ram's horn --
      shout for joy before the LORD, the King.

⁷ Let the sea resound, and everything in it,
      the world, and all who live in it.
⁸ Let the rivers clap their hands,
Let the mountains sing together for joy;
⁹ let them sing before the LORD,

      for he comes to judge the earth.
      He will judge the world in righteousness
      and the peoples with equity.
