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. Sing ye unto Jehovah a new song: for he hath done wondrous things; his right hand and his holy arm hath wrought salvation for him.

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

Jehovah hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the nations.

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

He hath remembered his loving-kindness and his faithfulness toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

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

Shout aloud unto Jehovah, all the earth; break forth and shout for joy, and sing psalms.

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

Sing psalms unto Jehovah with the harp: with the harp, and the voice of a song;

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 King, Jehovah.

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

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

8 Strømmene klappe i hender, fjellene juble alle sammen

Let the floods clap [their] hands; let the mountains sing for joy together,

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

Before Jehovah, for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with equity.
