Psalms 98

1 A psalm. Sing the Lord a new song, for he has done wonderful things: by his powerful right hand and his strong arm he has won the victory.

Ihubo Hlabelelani uThixo ingoma entsha, ngoba wenzile izinto ezimangalisayo; isandla sakhe sokunene lengalo yakhe engcwele sekumenzele insindiso.

2 The Lord has revealed his salvation to the nations, and shown them his goodness.

UThixo useyenze yaziwa insindiso yakhe waveza ukulunga kwakhe ezizweni.

3 He has not forgotten to show his trustworthy love and faithfulness to the descendants of Israel. Our God has made his salvation clear to the ends of the earth.

Uselukhumbule uthando lwakhe lokuthembeka Kwakhe endlini ka-Israyeli; yonke imikhawulo yomhlaba iyibonile insindiso kaNkulunkulu wethu.

4 Everyone on earth, shout in triumph to the Lord; break out in joyful songs of praise!

Hlokomani ngentokozo kuThixo, mhlaba wonke, hlabelani ingoma ngokujabula okukhulu, litshaya amachacho;

5 Sing praises to the Lord with the harp, with the harp and melodious voices;

yenzani umsindo kuThixo ngomhubhe, ngomhubhe langomsindo wokuhlabela,

6 with trumpets and the sound of the ram's horn sing in happiness before the Lord, the King.

ngamacilongo langomsindo wophondo lwenqama hlokomani ngentokozo phambi kukaThixo, iNkosi.

7 Let the sea and everything in it shout with praise, together with the earth and everything living in it.

Akuthi ulwandle luhlokome, lakho konke okuphakathi kwalo, umhlaba labo bonke abahlala kuwo.

8 Let the rivers celebrate, let the hills join in the celebration

Akuthi imifula iqakeze izandla zayo, akuthi izintaba zihlabele kanyekanye ngentokozo;

9 before the Lord, for he is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world justly, and the nations fairly.

kazihlabele phambi kukaThixo, ngoba Uyeza ukuzakwahlulela umhlaba. Uzakwahlulela umhlaba ngokulunga labantu bonke ngokufaneleyo.
