Salme 29

1 Giver Herren, I Guds Børn! giver Herren Ære og Styrke.

A psalm of David. Honor the Lord, children of God, honor his glory and strength.

2 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, tilbeder for Herren i hellig Prydelse.

Honor the Lord for his glorious character, bow in reverence to the Lord in his brilliant holiness.

3 Herrens Røst er over Vandene; Ærens Gud tordner; Herren er over de store Vande.

The Lord's voice sounds over the sea. The God of glory thunders. The Lord thunders over the vast ocean.

4 Herrens Røst er med Kraft; Herrens Røst er med Herlighed.

The Lord's voice is powerful; the Lord's voice is majestic;

5 Herrens Røst sønderbryder Cedre, og Herren har sønderbrudt Libanons Cedre.

the Lord's voice shatters the cedars, even breaking the cedars of Lebanon.

6 Og han gør, at de springe som en Kalv, Libanon og Sirjon som en ung Enhjørning.

He makes the mountains of Lebanon skip like a calf, and Mount Hermon like a young wild ox.

7 Herrens Røst slaar ned med Ildsluer.

The Lord's voice blazes out like lightning flashes.

8 Herrens Røst gør, at Ørken bæver; Herren gør, at Kades's Ørk bæver.

The Lord's voice causes an earthquake in the desert; the desert of Kadesh shakes.

9 Herrens Røst bringer Hinder til at føde og blotter Skovene; men i hans Tempel siger enhver: „Ære!‟

The Lord's voice makes the pregnant deer go into labor; it strips bare the forests. In his Temple all the worshipers shout, “Glory!”

10 Herren har siddet ved Syndfloden, og Herren sidder, en Konge evindelig.

The Lord sits on his throne above the floodwaters; the Lord is the eternal King.

11 Herren skal give sit Folk Kraft; Herren skal velsigne sit Folk i Freden.

The Lord gives strength to his people; the Lord blesses them with peace.
