Salme 96
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
Sing ye unto Jehovah a new song: sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; publish his salvation from day to day.
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Declare his glory among the nations, his wondrous works among all the peoples.
4 Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
For Jehovah is great and exceedingly to be praised; he is terrible above all gods.
5 Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols; but Jehovah made the heavens.
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Majesty and splendour are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Give unto Jehovah, ye families of peoples, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; bring an oblation and come into his courts;
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
Worship Jehovah in holy splendour; tremble 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, Jehovah reigneth! yea, the world is established, it shall not be moved; he will execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
Let the field exult and all that is therein. Then shall all the trees of the forest sing for 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 Jehovah, for he cometh; for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples in his faithfulness.
