2.The Lord declared his csalvation: his righteousness hath he reveiled in the sight of the nations.
3.He hath dremembred his mercie & his truth toward the house of Israél: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4.All the earth, sing ye loud unto the Lord: cry out and rejoyce, and sing praises.
5.Sing praise to the Lord upon the harp, even upon the harp with a singing voice.
6.With eshalmes and sound of trumpets sing loud before the Lord the King.
7.Let the sea roar, and all that therein is, the world, and they that dwell therein.
8.Let the floods clap their hands, and let the mountains rejoyce together.
9.Before the Lord: for he is come to judge the earth: with righteousness shal he judge the world, and the people with equity.
