Psalms

Chapter 98

Christ reigneth, notwithstanding his enemies repine, is adored ( ℣.5 also his foot stool) ℣.6 whom ancient Prophets did invocate.

  1. 1

    A Psalm to David himself. Our Lord hath reigned, let peoples be angry: he that sitteth upon the Cherubs, let the earth be moved.

  2. 2

    Our Lord great in Sion: and high above all peoples.

  3. 3

    Let them confess to thy great name: because it is terrible and holy.

  4. 4

    And the honour of the King loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.

  5. 5

    Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his foot-stool: because it is holy.

  6. 6

    Moyses and Aaron in his Priests: and Samuel among them that invocate his name: They invocated our Lord and he heard them:

  7. 7

    in a pillar of a cloud he spake to them. They kept his testimonies, & the precept which he gave them.

  8. 8

    O Lord our God thou heardest them: God thou wast propitious to them, and taking vengeance upon all their inventions.

  9. 9

    Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore ye in his holy mount: because the Lord our God is holy.
