< Salme 96 >
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
O 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, bless his name; show forth his salvation from day to day.
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Declare his glory among the heathen, 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 greatly 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 nations are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Honor and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Give to the LORD, O you kindreds of the people, 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 due to his name: bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: 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 heathen that the LORD reigns: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
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 fullness thereof.
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
Let the field be joyful, and all that is therein: then shall all the trees of the wood 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 LORD: for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
