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 dem HERRN ein neues Lied; denn er tut Wunder. Er siegt mit seiner Rechten und mit seinem heiligen 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.
Der HERR läßt sein Heil verkündigen; vor den Völkern läßt er seine Gerechtigkeit offenbaren.
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 gedenkt an seine Gnade und Wahrheit dem Hause Israel; aller Welt Enden sehen das Heil unsers Gottes.
4 All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!
Jauchzet dem HERRN, alle Welt; singet, rühmet und lobet!
5 Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.
Lobet den HERRN mit Harfen, mit Harfen und Psalmen!
6 [Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.
Mit Drommeten und Posaunen jauchzet vor dem HERRN, dem König!
7 The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!
Das Meer brause und was darinnen ist, der Erdboden 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,
Die Wasserströme frohlocken, und alle Berge seien fröhlich
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 dem HERRN; denn er kommt das Erdreich zu richten. Er wird den Erdboden richten mit Gerechtigkeit und die Völker mit Recht.
