Contextual Overview

5 The Lord , the true God, said these things. (He created the sky and spread it out over the earth. He formed the earth and everything it produced. He breathes life into all the people on earth. He gives a spirit to everyone who walks on the earth.) 6 "I, the Lord , was right to call you. I will hold your hand and protect you. You will be the sign of my agreement with the people. You will be a light for the other nations. 7 You will make the blind able to see. You will free those who are held as captives. You will lead those who live in darkness out of their prison. 8 "I am Yahweh . That is my name. I will not give my glory to another. I will not let statues take the praise that should be mine. 9 In the past, I told you what would happen, and it happened! Now I am telling you something new, and I am telling you now, before it happens." 10 Sing a new song to the Lord ; praise him everywhere on earth— all you who sail on the seas, everything in the sea, and all you people in faraway places! 11 Deserts and cities, villages of Kedar, praise the Lord! People living in Sela, sing for joy! Sing from the top of your mountain. 12 Give glory to the Lord . Praise him, all you people in faraway lands!

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Let them give glory unto the Lord,.... For all the great and good things he has done for them, in sending his Gospel to them, calling them by his grace, enlightening their minds, and revealing his Son in them, and making them partakers of the blessings of his grace, and entitling them to eternal glory and happiness:

and declare his praise in the islands; as on the western continent, and the isles of it; so on the eastern continent, and the islands of it, the islands of Greece, the islands in the Aegean sea.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

Let them give glory ... in the islands - (see the note at Isaiah 41:1). Let the distant regions praise God.
