Psalm 97


1 A Psalm of David.

Sing to the Lord a new song;

for the Lord hath wrought wonderful works,

his right hand, and his holy arm,

have wrought salvation for him.

2 The Lord hath made known his salvation,

he hath revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.

3 He hath 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 fulness of it;

the world, and they that dwell in it.

8 The rivers shall clap their hands together;

the mountains shall exult [1]before the Lord, for he cometh.

9 For he is come to judge the earth;

he shall judge the world in righteousness,

and the nations in uprightness.
