Psalms 98

1 A Psalm. O make a new song to the Lord, because he has done works of wonder; with his right hand, and with his holy arm, he has overcome.

歌 新しき歌を主にむかってうたえ。主はくすしきみわざをなされたからである。その右の手と聖なる腕とは、おのれのために勝利を得られた。

2 The Lord has given to all the knowledge of his salvation; he has made clear his righteousness in the eyes of the nations.

主はその勝利を知らせ、その義をもろもろの国民の前にあらわされた。

3 He has kept in mind his mercy and his unchanging faith to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

主はそのいつくしみと、まこととをイスラエルの家にむかって覚えられた。地のもろもろのはては、われらの神の勝利を見た。

4 Let all the earth send out a glad cry to the Lord; sounding with a loud voice, and praising him with songs of joy.

全地よ、主にむかって喜ばしき声をあげよ。声を放って喜び歌え、ほめうたえ。

5 Make melody to the Lord with instruments of music; with a corded instrument and the voice of song.

琴をもって主をほめうたえ。琴と歌の声をもってほめうたえ。

6 With wind instruments and the sound of the horn, make a glad cry before the Lord, the King.

ラッパと角笛の音をもって王なる主の前に喜ばしき声をあげよ。

7 Let the sea be thundering, with all its waters; the world, and all who are living in it;

海とその中に満ちるもの、世界とそのうちに住む者とは鳴りどよめけ。

8 Let the streams make sounds of joy with their hands; let the mountains be glad together,

大水はその手を打ち、もろもろの山は共に主のみ前に喜び歌え。

9 Before the Lord, for he has come as judge of the earth; judging the world in righteousness, and giving true decisions for the peoples.

主は地をさばくために来られるからである。主は義をもって世界をさばき、公平をもってもろもろの民をさばかれる。
