Salme 96
1 Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.
2 Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day His salvation.
3 Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His wonders.
4 Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
For great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He [is] over all gods.
5 Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
For all the gods of the peoples [are] nought, And Jehovah 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 in His sanctuary.
7 Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
8 Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present and come in to His courts.
9 Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the honour of holiness, Be afraid of His presence, all the earth.
10 Siger iblandt Hedningerne: Herren regerer, og Jorderige staar fast, det rokkes ej; han skal dømme Folkene med Retvished.
Say among nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also — established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'
11 Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.
12 Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
The field exulteth, and all that [is] in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,
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 Jehovah, for He hath come, For He hath come to judge the earth. He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness!
