PSAL. XCVIII.

The Psalmist exhorteth the Iewes, 4 the Gentiles, 7 and all creatures to praise God for his salvation by Christ.

A Psalme. [unspec 1]

SIng ye to Iehovah a new song, for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand hath saved him, and the arme of his ho∣linesse. Iehovah hath made knowen his sal∣vation, [unspec 2] to the eies of the nations he hath revea∣led his justice. He hath remēbred his mercy, [unspec 3] and his faithfulnesse to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seene the salvation of our God. Shout triumphantly to Iehovah, [unspec 4] all the earth shout cheerefully, & shout joyful∣ly, & sing Psalmes. Sing Psalmes to Iehovah [unspec 5] with harpe, with harpe and voice of a Psalme.

With trumpets, and voice of the cornet, [unspec 6] shout triumphantly before the King Iehovah.

Let the sea roare, and the plenty thereof, the [unspec 7] [unspec 8] world, and they that sit therein. Let the ri∣vers clap the hands together, let the moun∣taines shout joyfully. Before Iehovah, for [unspec 9] hee is come to judge the earth; he will judge the world in justice, and the peoples in righ∣teousnesses.
