Psalm 98
1 Ein Psalm. Singet Jehovah ein neues Lied; denn Wunder hat Er getan; gerettet hat Ihn Seine Rechte und der Arm Seiner Heiligkeit.
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].
2 Jehovah hat kundgetan Sein Heil; vor der Völkerschaften Augen hat Seine Gerechtigkeit Er geoffenbart.
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.
3 Er gedachte Seiner Barmherzigkeit und Seiner Wahrheit dem Hause Israels, alle Enden der Erde haben das Heil unseres Gottes gesehen.
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].
4 Jubelt Jehovah, alle die Erde, brechet aus und lobpreiset und singet Psalmen!
All you [people] [MTY] everywhere should sing joyfully to Yahweh; praise him while you sing and shout joyfully!
5 Singt Psalmen dem Jehovah zur Harfe, auf der Harfe und des Psalmen Stimme.
Praise Yahweh while you play the lyres/harps, playing [delightful] music.
6 Mit Trompeten und Schall der Posaune jauchzet auf vor dem König Jehovah!
[Some of you should] blow trumpets and other horns, [while others] shout joyfully to Yahweh, [our] king.
7 Es brause Ihm das Meer und seine Fülle; die Welt und die darin wohnen.
The oceans and all [the creatures] that are in the oceans should roar [to praise Yahweh]. Everyone on the earth should sing!
8 Die Flüsse sollen in die Hände klatschen, die Berge aufjubeln allzumal.
[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,
9 Vor Jehovah; denn Er kommt zu richten die Erde; Er richtet die Welt in Gerechtigkeit und die Völker in Geradheit.
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].
