Salme 96
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
Sing to the Lord a new song! All the earth, sing to the Lord!
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Sing to the Lord, and of his wonderful reputation! Each day let everyone know of his salvation!
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Declare his glorious acts among the nations, the amazing things he does among all peoples.
4 Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
For the Lord is great, and deserves the best praise! He is to be respected with awe above all gods.
5 Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
For all the gods of other nations are idols; but the Lord made the heavens!
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Splendor and majesty are his; power and glory are in his sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Give the Lord acclamation, nations of the world, acclaim him with glory and strength.
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Give the Lord the glory he deserves; bring an offering and come into his courts.
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
Worship the Lord in his magnificent holiness; let all the earth tremble in his presence.
10 Siger iblandt Hedningerne: Herren regerer, og Jorderige staar fast, det rokkes ej; han skal dømme Folkene med Retvished.
Tell the nations, “The Lord is in charge!” The world is held together firmly—it cannot be broken apart. He will judge everyone fairly.
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
Let the heavens sing for joy, let the earth be happy, let the sea and everything in it shout with praise!
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
Let the fields and everything there celebrate; let all the trees in 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.
In fact, let everything that stands before the Lord sing praises, for he is coming, coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world with fairness, and the nations with his truth.
