< Mazmur 98 >
1 Mazmur. Nyanyikanlah lagu baru bagi TUHAN, karena perbuatan-perbuatan-Nya yang mengagumkan! Dengan kuasa dan kekuatan-Nya sendiri Ia telah mendapat kemenangan.
A psalm. Oh, sing to Yahweh a new song, for he has done marvelous things; his right hand and his holy arm have given him victory.
2 TUHAN mewartakan kemenangan-Nya; Ia menyatakan keadilan-Nya kepada bangsa-bangsa.
Yahweh has made known his salvation; he has openly showed his justice to all the nations.
3 Ia ingat akan kasih dan kesetiaan-Nya kepada Israel, umat-Nya. Semua bangsa di seluruh bumi telah melihat kemenangan Allah kita.
He calls to mind his covenant loyalty and faithfulness for the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth will see the victory of our God.
4 Bersoraksorailah bagi TUHAN, hai seluruh bumi! Pujilah TUHAN dengan nyanyian dan sorak gembira.
Shout for joy to Yahweh, all the earth; burst into song, sing for joy, and sing praises.
5 Nyanyikan pujian bagi TUHAN, dengan memetik kecapi.
Sing praises to Yahweh with the harp, with the harp and melodious song.
6 Tiuplah trompet dan sangkakala, bersoraklah bagi TUHAN, Raja kita.
With trumpets and the sound of the horn, make a joyful noise before the King, Yahweh.
7 Bergemuruhlah hai laut dan semua isinya bumi dan semua yang mendiaminya.
Let the sea shout and everything in it, the world and those who live in it!
8 Biarlah sungai-sungai bertepuk tangan, dan bukit-bukit bersorak-sorai di hadapan TUHAN.
Let the rivers clap their hands, and let the mountains shout for joy.
9 Sebab Ia datang untuk menghakimi bumi; bangsa-bangsa akan dihakimi-Nya dengan adil dan benar.
Yahweh is coming to judge the earth; he will judge the world with righteousness and the nations with fairness.
