Psalms 98

1 [A Psalm.] Sing to the LORD a new song, for he has done marvelous things. His right hand, and his holy arm, have worked salvation for 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 The LORD has made known his salvation. He has openly shown his righteousness in the sight of the nations.

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

3 He has remembered his loving kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel. Every part of the earth has 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 Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth. Burst out and sing for joy, yes, sing praises.

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

5 Sing praises to the LORD with the harp, with the harp and the voice of melody.

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

6 With trumpets and sound of the ram's horn, make a joyful noise before the King, the LORD.

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

7 Let the sea roar with its fullness; the world, and those who dwell in it.

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

8 Let the rivers clap their hands. Let the mountains sing for joy together.

Strømmene klappe i hender, fjellene juble alle sammen

9 Let them sing before the LORD, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.

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