Psalm 98 KJV and Scottish Metrical Psalter

 Psalm 98   KJV 

1    O SING unto the LORD a new song;  for he hath done marvellous things:  his right hand, and his holy arm,
    hath gotten him the victory.

2    The LORD hath made known his salvation:  his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.

3    He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel:  all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation
    of our God.

4     Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth:  make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

5    Sing unto the LORD with the harp;  with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

6    With trumpets and sound of cornets make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.

7    Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;  the world, and they that dwell therein.

8    Let the floods clap their hands:  let the hills be joyful together

9    Before the LORD;  for he cometh to judge the earth:  with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.



Psalm 98   Scottish Metrical Psalter


1 O sing a new song to the Lord,
for wonders he hath done:
His right hand and his holy arm
him victory hath won.


2 The Lord God his salvation
hath caused to be known;
His justice in the heathen's sight
he openly hath shown.


3 He mindful of his grace and truth
to Isr'el's house hath been;
And the salvation of our God
all ends of th' earth have seen.


4 Let all the earth unto the Lord
send forth a joyful noise;
Lift up your voice aloud to him,
sing praises, and rejoice.


5 With harp, with harp, and voice of psalms,
unto Jehovah sing:


6 With trumpets, cornets, gladly sound
before the Lord the King.


7 Let seas and all their fulness roar;
the world, and dwellers there;


8 Let floods clap hands, and let the hills
together joy declare


9 Before the Lord; because he comes,
to judge the earth comes he:
He'll judge the world with righteousness,
his folk with equity.
