诗篇 98
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
当歌颂按公正审判人的 神
诗一首。
98 你们要向耶和华唱新歌,
因为他行了奇妙的事;
他的右手和他的圣臂,为他施行拯救。
2 耶和华显明了他的救恩,
在列国眼前显示了他的公义。
3 他记念他向以色列家所应许的慈爱和信实,
地的四极都看见我们 神的救恩。
4 全地都要向耶和华欢呼,
要发声欢唱,要歌颂。
5 要弹琴歌颂耶和华,
要用琴和歌声歌颂他;
6 要用号筒和号角的声音,
在大君王耶和华面前欢呼。
7 愿海和海中充满的,都翻腾响闹,
愿世界和住在世上的也都发声;
8 愿江河拍手,
愿群山一起欢呼;
9 它们都要在耶和华面前欢呼,
因为他来是要审判全地,
他要按着公义审判世界,
凭着公正审判万民。

Footnotes
- Psalm 98:1 sn Psalm 98. The psalmist summons the whole earth to praise God because he reveals his justice and delivers Israel.
- Psalm 98:1 sn A new song is appropriate because the Lord is constantly intervening in the world as its just king. See Ps 96:1.
- Psalm 98:1 tn The perfect verbal forms in vv. 1-3 are understood here as describing characteristic divine activities. Another option is to translate them as present perfects, “has performed…has accomplished deliverance, etc.” referring to completed actions that have continuing results.
- Psalm 98:1 tn Heb “his right hand delivers for him and his holy arm.” The right hand and arm symbolize his power as a warrior-king (see Isa 52:10). His arm is “holy” in the sense that it is in a category of its own; God’s power is incomparable.
- Psalm 98:2 tn Heb “makes known his deliverance.”
- Psalm 98:3 tn Heb “he remembers his loyal love and his faithfulness to the house of Israel.”
- Psalm 98:3 tn Heb “the deliverance of our God,” with “God” being a subjective genitive (= God delivers).
- Psalm 98:9 tn The verbal forms in v. 9 probably describe God’s typical, characteristic behavior, though they may depict in dramatic fashion the outworking of divine judgment or anticipate a future judgment of worldwide proportions (“will judge…”).
Psalm 98
King James Version
98 O sing unto the Lord a new song; for he hath done marvellous things: his right hand, and his holy arm, hath gotten him the victory.
2 The Lord hath made known his salvation: his righteousness hath he openly shewed in the sight of the heathen.
3 He hath remembered his mercy and his truth toward the house of Israel: all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.
4 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all the earth: make a loud noise, and rejoice, and sing praise.
5 Sing unto the Lord with the harp; with the harp, and the voice of a psalm.
6 With trumpets and sound of cornet make a joyful noise before the Lord, the King.
7 Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.
8 Let the floods clap their hands: let the hills be joyful together
9 Before the Lord; for he cometh to judge the earth: with righteousness shall he judge the world, and the people with equity.
