Psalm 98

Numbered 98 in the Septuagint and Vulgate; Psalm 99 in most modern Bibles.

Dominus regnavit. The reign of the Lord in Sion: that is, of Christ in his church.

1 A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: let the earth be moved.

2 The lord is great in Sion, and high above all people.

3 Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:

4 And the king's honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it 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 the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.

8 Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.

9 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.
