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. O sing to the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.

2 Herren har kunngjort sin frelse, åpenbaret sin rettferdighet for hedningenes øine.

The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shown in the sight of the heathen.

3 Han har kommet i hu sin miskunnhet og sin trofasthet mot Israels hus; alle jordens ender har sett vår Guds frelse.

4 Rop med glede for Herren, all jorden, bryt ut i jubel og lovsang!

Make a joyful noise to the LORD, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.

5 Lovsyng Herren til citar, til citar og med sangens røst,

Sing to the LORD with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.

6 til trompeter og basunens røst! Rop med fryd for kongens, Herrens åsyn!

With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the LORD, the King.

7 Havet bruse og alt det som fyller det, jorderike og de som bor der!

8 Strømmene klappe i hender, fjellene juble alle sammen

Before the LORD; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness will he judge the world, and the people with equity.
