For great is the Lord and worthy all praise; held in awe, above all gods:

Before him are splendour and majesty, beauty and strength in his holy place.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Ascribe to the Lord, you tribes of the nations, ascribe to the Lord glory and strength.

Bow to the Lord in holy array: 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 to the nations, ‘The Lord is king.’ The world stands firm to be shaken no more. He will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice, let the sea and its fulness thunder.
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
Let the field, and all that is in it, exult; let the trees of the forest ring out their 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 the Lord: for he comes, he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with justice and the nations with faithfulness.
