Psalms 98

1 A Psalm. O sing unto the LORD a new song; for He hath done marvellous things; His right hand, and His holy arm, hath wrought salvation for Him.

En salme. Syng Herren en ny sang! For han har gjort underlige ting; hans høire hånd og hans hellige arm har hjulpet ham.

2 The LORD hath made known His salvation; His righteousness hath He revealed in the sight of the nations.

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

3 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.

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

4 Shout unto the LORD, all the earth; break forth and sing for joy, yea, sing praises.

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

5 Sing praises unto the LORD with the harp; with the harp and the voice of melody.

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

6 With trumpets and sound of the horn shout ye before the King, the LORD.

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

7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein;

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

8 Let the floods clap their hands; let the mountains sing for joy together;

Strømmene klappe i hender, fjellene juble alle sammen

9 Before the LORD, for He is come to judge the earth; He will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.

for Herrens åsyn, for han kommer for å dømme jorden; han skal dømme jorderike med rettferdighet og folkene med rettvishet.
