Sing to the LORD a New Song 
(Psalm 98:1–9; Isaiah 42:10–17) 
Sing to the LORD a new song— 
His praise in the assembly of the godly. 
 2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker; 
let the children of Zion rejoice in their King. 
 3 Let them praise His name with dancing, 
and make music to Him with tambourine and harp. 
 4 For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; 
He adorns the afflicted with salvation. 
 5 Let the saints exult in glory; 
let them shout for joy upon their beds. 
 6 May the high praises of God be in their mouths, 
and a double-edged sword in their hands, 
 7 to inflict vengeance on the nations 
and punishment on the peoples, 
 8 to bind their kings with chains 
and their nobles with shackles of iron, 
 9 to execute the judgment written against them. 
This honor is for all His saints. 
Hallelujah!
