Salme 96
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
O make a new song to the Lord; let all the earth make melody to the Lord.
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Make songs to the Lord, blessing his name; give the good news of his salvation day by day.
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Make clear his glory to the nations, and his wonders to all the peoples.
4 Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised; he is more to be feared than all other gods.
5 Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
For all the gods of the nations are false gods; but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Honour and glory are before him: strong and fair is his holy place.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Give to the Lord, O you families of the peoples, give to the Lord glory and strength.
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Give to the Lord the glory of his name; take with you an offering and come into his house.
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
O give worship to the Lord in holy robes; be in fear before him, all the earth.
10 Siger iblandt Hedningerne: Herren regerer, og Jorderige staar fast, det rokkes ej; han skal dømme Folkene med Retvished.
Say among the nations, The Lord is King; yes, the world is ordered so that it may not be moved; he will be an upright judge of the peoples.
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
Let the heavens have joy and the earth be glad; let the sea be thundering with all its waters;
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
Let the field be glad, and everything which is in it; yes, let all the trees of the wood be sounding with joy,
13 for Herrens Ansigt; thi han kommer, thi han kommer til at dømme Jorden; han skal dømme Jorderige med Retfærdighed og Folkene med sin Sandhed.
Before the Lord, for he is come; he is come to be the judge of the earth; the earth will be judged in righteousness, and the peoples with unchanging faith.
