Salme 96
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
A Canticle of David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing to the Lord a new song. Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Sing to the Lord and bless his name. Announce his salvation from day to day.
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Announce his glory among the Gentiles, his miracles among all 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 terrible, beyond all gods.
5 Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
For all the gods of the Gentiles are demons, but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Confession and beauty are in his sight. Sanctity and magnificence are in his sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Bring to the Lord, you natives of the nations, bring to the Lord glory and honor.
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Bring to the Lord glory for his name. Lift up sacrifices, and enter into his courts.
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
Adore the Lord in his holy court. Let the entire earth be shaken before his face.
10 Siger iblandt Hedningerne: Herren regerer, og Jorderige staar fast, det rokkes ej; han skal dømme Folkene med Retvished.
Say among the Gentiles: The Lord has reigned. For he has even corrected the whole world, which will not be shaken. He will judge the peoples with fairness.
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth exult; let the sea and all its fullness be moved.
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
The fields and all the things that are in them will be glad. Then all the trees of the forest will rejoice
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 face of the Lord: for he arrives. For he arrives to judge the earth. He will judge the whole world with fairness and the peoples with his truth.
