Psalms 98

1 A Psalm. O sing unto the LORD a new song; for He hath done marvellous things; His right hand, and His holy arm, hath 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 hath made known His salvation; His righteousness hath He revealed in the sight of the nations.

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

3 He hath remembered His mercy and His faithfulness toward 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 unto the LORD, all the earth; break forth and sing for joy, yea, sing praises.

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

5 Sing praises unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp and the voice of melody.

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

6 With trumpets and sound of the horn shout ye before the King, the LORD.

med lurar og basunklang gjev fagnadrop for kongen, Herren!

7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein;

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

8 Let the floods clap their hands; let the mountains sing for joy together;

Elvarne klappe i hender, fjelli fagne seg med

9 Before the LORD, for He is come to judge the earth; He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.

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