1 Halleluja! Pris, I HERRENS Tjenere, pris HERRENS Navn!

Let the Lord be praised. O you servants of the Lord, give praise to the name of the Lord.

2 HERRENS Navn være lovet fra nu og til evig Tid;

Let blessing be on the name of the Lord, from this time and for ever.

3 fra Sol i Opgang til Sol i Bjærge være HERRENS Navn lovpriset!

From the coming up of the sun to its going down, the Lord's name is to be praised.

4 Over alle Folk er HERREN ophøjet, hans Herlighed højt over Himlene.

The Lord is high over all nations, and his glory is higher than the heavens.

5 Hvo er som HERREN vor Gud, som rejste sin Trone i det høje

Who is like the Lord our God, who is seated on high,

6 og skuer ned i det dybe — i Himlene og paa Jorden —

Looking down on the heavens, and on the earth?

7 som rejser den ringe af Støvet, løfter den fattige op af Skarnet

He takes the poor man out of the dust, lifting him up from his low position;

8 og sætter ham mellem Fyrster, imellem sit Folks Fyrster,

To give him a place among the rulers, even with the rulers of his people.

9 han, som lader barnløs Hustru sidde som lykkelig Barnemoder!

He gives the unfertile woman a family, making her a happy mother of children. Give praise to the Lord.
