Sing to the LORD a New Song
A Psalm.
1Sing to the LORD a new song,for He has done wonders;His right hand and holy armhave gained Him the victory. 2The LORD has proclaimed His salvationand revealed His righteousness to the nations. 3He has remembered His love and faithfulnessto the house of Israel;all the ends of the earthhave seen the salvation of our God.
4Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth;break forth—let your cry ring out, and sing praises! 5Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre,in melodious song with the harp. 6With trumpets and the blast of the ram’s hornshout for joy before the LORD, the King.
7Let the sea resound, and all that fills it,the world, and all who dwell in it. 8Let the rivers clap their hands,let the mountains sing together for joy 9before the LORD,for He comes to judge the earth.He will judge the world with righteousnessand the peoples with equity.
