Comment – The composition of Psalm 98 dates back to the post-exile period, the psalmist invites a new song in honor of the Lord who has done great things, freeing Israel from the oppressors and his opponents. Through Christ we were given the salvation of God, to free us from sin, and shown the justice that made us righteous before the Father.

[1] Psalm. Sing a new song to the Lord, for he has performed wonders. His right hand and his holy arm gave him victory.

[5] Sing hymns to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and with a melodious sound;

[7] The sea and all that it encloses, the world and its inhabitants.
[8] The rivers clap their hands, the mountains rejoice together
[9] before the Lord who comes, who comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with justice and the peoples with righteousness.
