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].
[Ein Psalm.] Singet Jehova ein neues Lied! denn er hat Wunder getan; Rettung hat ihm verschafft seine Rechte und sein heiliger Arm.
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.
Jehova hat kundgetan seine Rettung, vor den Augen der Nationen geoffenbart seine Gerechtigkeit.
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].
Er hat seiner Güte und seiner Treue gedacht dem Hause Israel; alle Enden der Erde haben die Rettung unseres Gottes gesehen.
4 All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!
Jauchzet Jehova, ganze Erde! brechet in Jubel aus und singet Psalmen!
5 Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.
Singet Psalmen Jehova mit der Laute mit der Laute und der Stimme des Gesanges!
6 [Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.
Mit Trompeten und dem Schall der Posaune jauchzet vor dem König Jehova!
7 The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!
Es brause das Meer und seine Fülle, der Erdkreis und die darauf wohnen!
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,
Mögen die Ströme in die Hände klatschen, mögen jubeln die Berge allzumal-
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].
vor Jehova! denn er kommt, die Erde zu richten: er wird den Erdkreis richten in Gerechtigkeit und die Völker in Geradheit.
