Psalms 98

1 A Psalm of David. Sing to the Lord a new song; for the Lord has wrought wonderful works, his right hand, and his holy arm, have wrought salvation for him.

Ein salme. Syng Herren ein ny song! For han hev gjort under, hans høgre hand hev hjelpt honom, og hans heilage arm.

2 The Lord has made known his salvation, he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.

Herren hev kunngjort si frelsa, for augo på heidningarne hev han openberra si rettferd.

3 He has remembered his mercy to Jacob, and his truth to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

Han hev kome i hug si miskunn og sin truskap mot Israels hus; alle heimsens endar hev set frelsa frå vår Gud.

4 Shout to God, all the earth; sing, and exult, and sing psalms.

Ropa med gleda for Herren, all jordi! Set i med fagnad og lovsong!

5 Sing to the Lord with a harp, with a harp, and the voice of a psalm.

Syng lov for Herren med cither, med cither og med lovsongs røyst,

6 With trumpets of metal, and the sound of a trumpet of horn make a joyful noise to the Lord before the king.

med lurar og basunklang gjev fagnadrop for kongen, Herren!

7 Let the sea be moved, and the fullness of it; the world, and they that dwell in it.

Havet dure og alt som i det er, heimen og alle som i heimen bur!

8 The rivers shall clap their hands together; the mountains shall exult.

Elvarne klappe i hender, fjelli fagne seg med

9 For he is come to judge the earth; he shall judge the world in righteousness, and the nations in uprightness.

for Herrens åsyn, for han kjem til å døma jordi, han skal døma jordriket med rettferd og folki med rettvisa.
