< Salme 96 >
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
O SING unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Sing unto the LORD, 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 nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
4 Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
For great is the LORD, and highly 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 peoples are idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
Honour and majesty are before him: strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Give unto the LORD, ye kindreds of the peoples, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Give unto the LORD the glory due unto 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: 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, The LORD reigneth: the world also is stablished that it cannot be moved: he shall judge the peoples with equity.
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; 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 wood 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 the LORD, for he cometh; for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the peoples with his truth.
