Psalms 98
1 A Psalme. Sing vnto the Lord a newe song: for hee hath done marueilous things: his right hand, and his holy arme haue gotten him the victorie.
Sing to Yahweh a new song, because he has done wonderful things! By his power [MTY] and his great strength [DOU] he has defeated [his enemies].
2 The Lord declared his saluation: his righteousnes hath he reueiled in the sight of ye nations.
Yahweh has declared to people that he has defeated his enemies; he has revealed that he has punished [them], and [people in] all the world have seen that he has done it.
3 He hath remembred his mercy and his trueth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth haue seene the saluation of our God.
Like he promised to us Israeli people [MTY], he has faithfully loved us and (been loyal to/not abandoned) us. [People who live] in very remote places in all the earth have seen that our God has defeated [his enemies].
4 All the earth, sing ye loude vnto the Lord: crie out and reioyce, and sing prayses.
All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!
5 Sing prayse to the Lord vpon the harpe, euen vpon the harpe with a singing voyce.
Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.
6 With shalmes and sound of trumpets sing loude before the Lord the King.
[Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.
7 Let the sea roare, and all that therein is, the world, and they that dwell therein.
The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!
8 Let the floods clap their hands, and let the mountaines reioyce together
[It should seem as though] the rivers are clapping their hands [to praise Yahweh] and that the hills are singing together joyfully in front of Yahweh,
9 Before the Lord: for he is come to iudge the earth: with righteousnesse shall hee iudge the world, and the people with equitie.
because he will come to judge [everyone on] [MTY] the earth! He will judge [all] the people-groups [in the world] justly and fairly [DOU].
