< Psalms 98 >
1 “A psalm.” Oh sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done wonderful things: his right hand and his holy arm have gotten him the victory.
Mazmur. Nyanyikanlah lagu baru bagi TUHAN, karena perbuatan-perbuatan-Nya yang mengagumkan! Dengan kuasa dan kekuatan-Nya sendiri Ia telah mendapat kemenangan.
2 The Lord hath made known his salvation: before the eyes of the nations hath he revealed his righteousness.
TUHAN mewartakan kemenangan-Nya; Ia menyatakan keadilan-Nya kepada bangsa-bangsa.
3 He hath remembered his kindness and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
Ia ingat akan kasih dan kesetiaan-Nya kepada Israel, umat-Nya. Semua bangsa di seluruh bumi telah melihat kemenangan Allah kita.
4 Shout joyfully unto the Lord, all the lands: break forth, and rejoice, and sing praises.
Bersoraksorailah bagi TUHAN, hai seluruh bumi! Pujilah TUHAN dengan nyanyian dan sorak gembira.
5 Sing praises unto the Lord with the harp, —with the harp, and the voice of psalmody.
Nyanyikan pujian bagi TUHAN, dengan memetik kecapi.
6 With trumpets and the sound of cornet shout joyfully before the King, the Lord.
Tiuplah trompet dan sangkakala, bersoraklah bagi TUHAN, Raja kita.
7 Let the sea roar, with all that filleth it; the world, with those that dwell therein.
Bergemuruhlah hai laut dan semua isinya bumi dan semua yang mendiaminya.
8 Let the rivers clap their hands; let the mountains be joyful together,
Biarlah sungai-sungai bertepuk tangan, dan bukit-bukit bersorak-sorai di hadapan TUHAN.
9 Before the Lord; for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and people with equity.
Sebab Ia datang untuk menghakimi bumi; bangsa-bangsa akan dihakimi-Nya dengan adil dan benar.
