< Salmenes 98 >
1 En salme. Syng Herren en ny sang! For han har gjort underlige ting; hans høire hånd og hans hellige arm har hjulpet ham.
A Psalm of David. Sing to the Lord a new song; for the Lord has wrought wonderful works, his right hand, and his holy arm, have wrought salvation for him.
2 Herren har kunngjort sin frelse, åpenbaret sin rettferdighet for hedningenes øine.
The Lord has made known his salvation, he has revealed his righteousness in the sight of the nations.
3 Han har kommet i hu sin miskunnhet og sin trofasthet mot Israels hus; alle jordens ender har sett vår Guds frelse.
He has remembered his mercy to Jacob, and his truth to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Rop med glede for Herren, all jorden, bryt ut i jubel og lovsang!
Shout to God, all the earth; sing, and exult, and sing psalms.
5 Lovsyng Herren til citar, til citar og med sangens røst,
Sing to the Lord with a harp, with a harp, and the voice of a psalm.
6 til trompeter og basunens røst! Rop med fryd for kongens, Herrens åsyn!
With trumpets of metal, and the sound of a trumpet of horn make a joyful noise to the Lord before the king.
7 Havet bruse og alt det som fyller det, jorderike og de som bor der!
Let the sea be moved, and the fullness of it; the world, and they that dwell in it.
8 Strømmene klappe i hender, fjellene juble alle sammen
The rivers shall clap their hands together; the mountains shall exult.
9 for Herrens åsyn, for han kommer for å dømme jorden; han skal dømme jorderike med rettferdighet og folkene med rettvishet.
For he is come to judge the earth; he shall judge the world in righteousness, and the nations in uprightness.
