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].

מִזְמוֹר שִׁירוּ לַיהֹוָה ׀ שִׁיר חָדָשׁ כִּֽי־נִפְלָאוֹת עָשָׂה הוֹשִׁיעָה־לּוֹ יְמִינוֹ וּזְרוֹעַ קׇדְשֽׁוֹ׃

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.

הוֹדִיעַ יְהֹוָה יְשׁוּעָתוֹ לְעֵינֵי הַגּוֹיִם גִּלָּה צִדְקָתֽוֹ׃

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].

זָכַר חַסְדּוֹ ׀ וֶאֱֽמוּנָתוֹ לְבֵית יִשְׂרָאֵל רָאוּ כׇל־אַפְסֵי־אָרֶץ אֵת יְשׁוּעַת אֱלֹהֵֽינוּ׃

4 All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!

הָרִיעוּ לַיהֹוָה כׇּל־הָאָרֶץ פִּצְחוּ וְרַנְּנוּ וְזַמֵּֽרוּ׃

5 Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.

זַמְּרוּ לַיהֹוָה בְּכִנּוֹר בְּכִנּוֹר וְקוֹל זִמְרָֽה׃

6 [Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.

בַּחֲצֹצְרוֹת וְקוֹל שׁוֹפָר הָרִיעוּ לִפְנֵי ׀ הַמֶּלֶךְ יְהֹוָֽה׃

7 The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!

יִרְעַם הַיָּם וּמְלֹאוֹ תֵּבֵל וְיֹשְׁבֵי בָֽהּ׃

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,

נְהָרוֹת יִמְחֲאוּ־כָף יַחַד הָרִים יְרַנֵּֽנוּ׃

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].

לִפְֽנֵי יְהֹוָה כִּי בָא לִשְׁפֹּט הָאָרֶץ יִשְׁפֹּֽט־תֵּבֵל בְּצֶדֶק וְעַמִּים בְּמֵישָׁרִֽים׃
