< Zaburi 98 >
1 Oh, mwimbieni Yahwe wimbo mpya, kwa kuwa ametenda mambo ya ajabu; mkono wake wa kuume na mkono wake mtakatifu vimempa ushindi.
A Psalm. Sing unto the LORD a new song; for he hath done marvelous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath wrought salvation for him.
2 Yahwe ameufanya wokovu wake ujulikane; ameidhihirisha haki yake kwa mataifa yote.
The LORD hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the nations.
3 Hukumbuka uaminifu wa agano lake na uaminifu kwa ajili ya nyumba ya Israeli; miisho yote ya dunia itauona ushindi wa Mungu wetu.
He hath remembered his mercy and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Mshangilieni Yahwe, nchi yote; pazeni sauti kwa wimbo, imbeni kwa furaha, na imbeni sifa.
Make a joyful noise unto the LORD, all the earth: break forth and sing for joy, yea, sing praises.
5 Mwimbieni Yahwe sifa kwa kinubi, kwa kinubi na wimbo wenye muiki wa kupendeza.
Sing praises unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp and the voice of melody:
6 Kwa panda na sauti ya baragumu, fanyeni kelele za shangwe mbele ya Mfalme, Yahwe.
With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the King, the LORD.
7 Bahari na ipige kelele na vyote vilivyomo, ulimwengu na wale wakaao ndani yake!
Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein;
8 Mito na ipige makofi, na milima ipige kelele kwa furaha.
Let the floods clap their hands; let the hills sing for joy together;
9 Yahwe anakuja kuihukumu nchi; naye ataihukumu dunia kwa haki na mataifa kwa adili.
Before the LORD, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
