Psalms 98

1 A PSALM. Sing to YHWH a new song, For He has done wonders, His right hand and His holy arm have given salvation to Him.

En salme. Syng Herren en ny sang! For han har gjort underlige ting; hans høire hånd og hans hellige arm har hjulpet ham.

2 YHWH has made His salvation known, Before the eyes of the nations, He has revealed His righteousness,

Herren har kunngjort sin frelse, åpenbaret sin rettferdighet for hedningenes øine.

3 He has remembered His kindness, And His faithfulness to the house of Israel, All the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

Han har kommet i hu sin miskunnhet og sin trofasthet mot Israels hus; alle jordens ender har sett vår Guds frelse.

4 Shout to YHWH, all the earth, Break forth, and cry aloud, and sing.

Rop med glede for Herren, all jorden, bryt ut i jubel og lovsang!

5 Sing to YHWH with harp, With harp, and voice of praise,

Lovsyng Herren til citar, til citar og med sangens røst,

6 With trumpets, and voice of a horn, shout before the King, YHWH.

til trompeter og basunens røst! Rop med fryd for kongens, Herrens åsyn!

7 The sea and its fullness roar, The world and the inhabitants in it.

Havet bruse og alt det som fyller det, jorderike og de som bor der!

8 Floods clap hand, together hills cry aloud,

Strømmene klappe i hender, fjellene juble alle sammen

9 Before YHWH, For He has come to judge the earth, He judges the world in righteousness, And the people in uprightness!

for Herrens åsyn, for han kommer for å dømme jorden; han skal dømme jorderike med rettferdighet og folkene med rettvishet.
