Psalms 98

1 A Psalm. Sing to the LORD a new song, for He has done wonders; His right hand and holy arm have gained Him the victory.

Sing to Adonai a new song, for he has done marvelous things! His right hand, and his holy arm, have worked salvation for him.

2 The LORD has proclaimed His salvation and revealed His righteousness to the nations.

Adonai has made known his yishu'ah ·salvation·. He has openly shown his righteousness in the sight of the nations.

3 He has remembered His love and faithfulness to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

He has remembered his chesed ·loving-kindness· and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel [God prevails]. All the ends of the earth have seen the yishu'ah ·salvation· of our God.

4 Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth; break forth—let your cry ring out, and sing praises!

Make a joyful noise to Adonai, all the earth! Burst out and sing for joy, yes, sing zahmar ·musical praise·!

5 Sing praises to the LORD with the lyre, in melodious song with the harp.

Sing zahmar ·musical praise· to Adonai with the harp, with the harp and the voice of melody.

6 With trumpets and the blast of the ram’s horn shout for joy before the LORD, the King.

With trumpets and sound of the shofar ·ram horn·, make a joyful noise before the King, Adonai.

7 Let the sea resound, and all that fills it, the world, and all who dwell in it.

Let the sea roar with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell therein.

8 Let the rivers clap their hands, let the mountains sing together for joy

Let the rivers clap their hands. Let the mountains sing for joy together.

9 before the LORD, for He comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness and the peoples with equity.

Let them sing before Adonai, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
