Context of Isaiah 42:10
8I am the Lord. That is my name. I will not let anyone else share my glory. I will not let people praise idols. I am the only one that they must praise. 9Everything that I promised in the past has happened as I said that it would happen. Now I will tell you about new things. Before they start to happen, I will tell you about them.’ Sing a new song to the Lord! All over the earth, people should praise him. Praise him, you people who travel over the sea and everything that lives in the sea. Praise him, you people who live in lands far away. 11People who live in the towns of the desert should shout aloud to praise him. Kedar's people should praise him in the places where they live. The people who live in Sela should sing aloud with joy. They should shout from the tops of the mountains. 12They should all honour the Lord as he deserves. Those who live in lands far away should praise him for what he has done.

Commentaries on Isaiah 42:10
- Adam Clarke Bible Commentary · v. 10Ye that go down to the sea - This seems not to belong to this place; it does not well consist with what follows, "and the fullness thereof." They that go down upon the sea means navigators, sailors, traders, such as do business in great waters; an idea much too confined for the prophet, who means the sea in general, as it is used by the Hebrews, for the distant nations, the islands, the dwellers on the sea-coasts all over the world. I suspect that some…Read the comment
- Barnes’ Notes on the Bible · v. 10Sing unto the Lord a new song - It is common, as we have seen, to celebrate the goodness of God in a hymn of praise on the manifestation of any special act of mercy (see the notes at Isaiah 12:1-6; Isaiah 25:1-12; 26) Here the prophet calls upon all people to celebrate the divine mercy in a song of praise in view of his goodness in providing a Redeemer.
