A Call to Praise the Loʀᴅ for His Righteousness.
A Psalm.
1 O sing to the Loʀᴅ a new song,
For He has done marvelous and wonderful things;
His right hand and His holy arm have gained the victory for Him.
2 The Loʀᴅ has made known His salvation;
He has [openly] revealed His righteousness in the sight of the nations. [Luke 2:30, 31]
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. [Acts 13:47; 28:28]
4 Shout joyfully to the Loʀᴅ, all the earth;
Shout [in jubilation] and sing for joy and sing praises.
5 Sing praises to the Loʀᴅ with the lyre,
With the lyre and the sound of melody.
6 With trumpets and the sound of the horn
Shout with joy before the King, the Loʀᴅ.
7 Let the sea thunder and roar, and all the things it contains,
The world and those who dwell in it.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands;
Let the mountains sing together for joy and delight
9 Before the Loʀᴅ, for He is coming to judge the earth;
He will judge the world with righteousness
And the peoples with fairness.
