Psaumes 98
Louis Segond
98 Psaume. Chantez à l'Éternel un cantique nouveau! Car il a fait des prodiges. Sa droite et son bras saint lui sont venus en aide.
2 L'Éternel a manifesté son salut, Il a révélé sa justice aux yeux des nations.
3 Il s'est souvenu de sa bonté et de sa fidélité envers la maison d'Israël, Toutes les extrémités de la terre ont vu le salut de notre Dieu.
4 Poussez vers l'Éternel des cris de joie, Vous tous, habitants de la terre! Faites éclater votre allégresse, et chantez!
5 Chantez à l'Éternel avec la harpe; Avec la harpe chantez des cantiques!
6 Avec les trompettes et au son du cor, Poussez des cris de joie devant le roi, l'Éternel!
7 Que la mer retentisse avec tout ce qu'elle contient, Que le monde et ceux qui l'habitent éclatent d'allégresse,
8 Que les fleuves battent des mains, Que toutes les montagnes poussent des cris de joie,
9 Devant l'Éternel! Car il vient pour juger la terre; Il jugera le monde avec justice, Et les peuples avec équité.

Footnotes
- Psalm 98 A hymn, similar to Ps 96, extolling God for Israel’s victory (Ps 98:1–3). All nations (Ps 98:4–6) and even inanimate nature (Ps 98:7–8) are summoned to welcome God’s coming to rule over the world (Ps 98:9).
- 98:1 Marvelous deeds…victory: the conquest of all threats to the peaceful existence of Israel, depicted in the Psalms variously as a cosmic force such as sea, or nations bent on Israel’s destruction, or evildoers seemingly triumphant. His right hand and holy arm: God is pictured as a powerful warrior.
