诗篇 98
Chinese New Version (Traditional)
當歌頌按公正審判人的 神
詩一首。
98 你們要向耶和華唱新歌,
因為他行了奇妙的事;
他的右手和他的聖臂,為他施行拯救。
2 耶和華顯明了他的救恩,
在列國眼前顯示了他的公義。
3 他記念他向以色列家所應許的慈愛和信實,
地的四極都看見我們 神的救恩。
4 全地都要向耶和華歡呼,
要發聲歡唱,要歌頌。
5 要彈琴歌頌耶和華,
要用琴和歌聲歌頌他;
6 要用號筒和號角的聲音,
在大君王耶和華面前歡呼。
7 願海和海中充滿的,都翻騰響鬧,
願世界和住在世上的也都發聲;
8 願江河拍手,
願群山一起歡呼;
9 它們都要在耶和華面前歡呼,
因為他來是要審判全地,
他要按著公義審判世界,
憑著公正審判萬民。

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…”).
