8 I am the Lord; that is my name.I will not give my glory to anyone elseor the praise I deserve to idols.
9 What I said in the past has come true.I will reveal new things before they happen.
10 Sing a new song to the Lord.Sing his praise from the ends of the earth,you people who sail on the seasand all the creatures that live in them,you coastlands and all who live on them.
11 Let those who live in the desert and its cities raise their voices.Let those who live in the settlements of Kedar praise him.Let those who live in Sela sing for joy.Let them shout from the tops of the mountains.
12 Let them give glory to the Lordand announce his praise on the coastlands.
13 The Lord marches out like a warrior.He prepares himself for battle like a soldier.He shouts, gives the battle cry, and overpowers his enemies.
14 I have been silent for a long time.I kept quiet and held myself back.But like a woman in childbirth I will cry out.I will gasp and pant.
