Psalm 98

A Psalm of David.

¹ Sing to the Lord a new song; for the Lord has wrought wonderful works, his right hand, and his holy arm, have wrought salvation for him.

² The Lord has made known his salvation, he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations. ³ He has remembered his mercy to Jacob, and his truth to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

⁴ Shout to God, all the earth; sing, and exult, and sing psalms. ⁵ Sing to the Lord with a harp, with a harp, and the voice of a psalm. ⁶ With trumpets of metal, and the sound of a trumpet of horn make a joyful noise to the Lord before the king. ⁷ Let the sea be moved, and the fullness of it; the world, and they that dwell in it. ⁸ The rivers shall clap their hands together; the mountains shall exult.¹⁹ For he is come to judge the earth; he shall judge the world in righteousness, and the nations in uprightness.

Psalm 99

A Psalm of David.

¹ The Lord reigns;--let the people rage; it is he that sits upon the cherubs, let the earth be moved. ² The Lord is great in Sion, and is high over all the people. ³ Let them give thanks to thy great name; for it is terrible and holy. ⁴ And the king's honour loves judgment; thou hast prepared ²equity, thou hast wrought judgment and justice in Jacob. ⁵ Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at his footstool; for he is holy.

⁶ Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name; they called upon the Lord, and he heard them. ⁷ He spoke to them in a pillar of cloud; they kept his testimonies, and the ordinances which he gave them. ⁸ O Lord our God, thou heardest them; O God, thou

becamest propitious to them, though thou didst take vengeance on all their devices. ⁹ Exalt ye the Lord our God, and worship at his holy mountain; for the Lord our God is holy.

Psalm 100

A Psalm for Thanksgiving.

¹ Make a joyful noise to the Lord, all the earth. ² Serve the Lord with gladness; come before his presence with exultation. ³ Know that the Lord he is God; he made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. ⁴ Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and his courts with hymns; give thanks to him, praise his name. ⁵ For the Lord is good, his mercy is for ever; and his truth endures to generation and generation.
