Salme 96
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
A canticle for David himself, when the house was built after the captivity. Sing ye to the Lord a new canticle: sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Sing ye to the Lord and bless his name: shew forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Declare his glory among the Gentiles: his wonders among all people.
4 Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
For the Lord is great, and exceedingly to be praised: he is to be feared above all gods.
5 Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
For all the gods of the Gentiles are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Praise and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty in his sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Bring ye to the Lord, O ye kindreds of the Gentiles, bring ye to the Lord glory and honour:
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Bring to the Lord glory unto his name. Bring up sacrifices, and come into his courts:
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
Adore ye the Lord in his holy court. Let all the earth be moved at his presence.
10 Siger iblandt Hedningerne: Herren regerer, og Jorderige staar fast, det rokkes ej; han skal dømme Folkene med Retvished.
Say ye among the Gentiles, the Lord hath reigned. For he hath corrected the world, which shall not be moved: he will judge the people with justice.
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 be moved, and the fulness thereof:
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
The fields and all things that are in them shall be joyful. Then shall all the trees of the woods 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, because he cometh: because he cometh to judge the earth. He shall judge the world with justice, and the people with his truth.
