< Mazmur 98 >
1 Mazmur. Nyanyikanlah nyanyian baru bagi TUHAN, sebab Ia telah melakukan perbuatan-perbuatan yang ajaib; keselamatan telah dikerjakan kepada-Nya oleh tangan kanan-Nya, oleh lengan-Nya yang kudus.
O sing to the LORD a new song; for he has done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, has gotten him the victory.
2 TUHAN telah memperkenalkan keselamatan yang dari pada-Nya, telah menyatakan keadilan-Nya di depan mata bangsa-bangsa.
The LORD has made known his salvation: his righteousness has he openly showed in the sight of the heathen.
3 Ia mengingat kasih setia dan kesetiaan-Nya terhadap kaum Israel, segala ujung bumi telah melihat keselamatan yang dari pada Allah kita.
He has remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Bersorak-soraklah bagi TUHAN, hai seluruh bumi, bergembiralah, bersorak-sorailah dan bermazmurlah!
Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
5 Bermazmurlah bagi TUHAN dengan kecapi, dengan kecapi dan lagu yang nyaring,
Sing to the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.
6 dengan nafiri dan sangkakala yang nyaring bersorak-soraklah di hadapan Raja, yakni TUHAN!
With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.
7 Biarlah gemuruh laut serta isinya, dunia serta yang diam di dalamnya!
Let the sea roar, and the fullness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
8 Biarlah sungai-sungai bertepuk tangan, dan gunung-gunung bersorak-sorai bersama-sama
Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together
9 di hadapan TUHAN, sebab Ia datang untuk menghakimi bumi. Ia akan menghakimi dunia dengan keadilan, dan bangsa-bangsa dengan kebenaran.
Before the LORD; for he comes to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
