< Psalms 98 >
1 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].
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.
2 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.
The Lord declared his saluation: his righteousnes hath he reueiled in the sight of ye nations.
3 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].
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.
4 All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!
All the earth, sing ye loude vnto the Lord: crie out and reioyce, and sing prayses.
5 Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.
Sing prayse to the Lord vpon the harpe, euen vpon the harpe with a singing voyce.
6 [Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.
With shalmes and sound of trumpets sing loude before the Lord the King.
7 The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!
Let the sea roare, and all that therein is, the world, and they that dwell therein.
8 [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,
Let the floods clap their hands, and let the mountaines reioyce together
9 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].
Before the Lord: for he is come to iudge the earth: with righteousnesse shall hee iudge the world, and the people with equitie.
