Salme 29

1 En Salme af David. Giver HERREN, I Guds Sønner, giver HERREN Ære og Pris,

“A psalm of David.” Ascribe unto the Lord, O ye sons of the mighty, ascribe unto the Lord glory and strength.

2 giver HERREN hans Navns Ære; tilbed HERREN i helligt Skrud!

Ascribe unto the Lord the glory of his name; bow down to the Lord in the beauty of holiness.

3 HERRENS Røst er over Vandene, Ærens Gud lader Tordenen rulle, HERREN, over de vældige Vande!

The voice of the Lord is upon the waters; the God of glory thundereth, the Lord—upon mighty waters.

4 HERRENS Røst med Vælde, HERRENS Røst i Højhed,

The voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with power; the voice of the Lord [resoundeth] with majesty.

5 HERRENS Røst, den splintrer Cedre, HERREN splintrer Libanons Cedre,

The voice of the Lord breaketh in pieces the cedars; yea, the Lord shivereth the cedars of Lebanon;

6 faar Libanon til at springe som en Kalv og Sirjon som den vilde Okse!

And he maketh them skip like a calf; Lebanon and Siryon like young reems.

7 HERRENS Røst udslynger Luer.

The voice of the Lord heweth out flames of fire.

8 HERRENS Røst faar Ørk til at skælve, HERREN faar Kadesj's Ørk til at skælve!

The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh.

9 HERRENS Røst faar Hind til at føde, og den gør lyst i Skoven. Alt i hans Helligdom raaber: »Ære!«

The voice of the Lord causeth the hinds to start, and maketh bare forests: and in his temple every thing speaketh [of his] glory.

10 HERREN tog Sæde og sendte Vandfloden, HERREN tog Sæde som Konge for evigt.

The Lord sat [enthroned] at the flood: and the Lord will sit as King for ever.

11 HERREN give Kraft til sit Folk, HERREN velsigne sit Folk med Fred!

The Lord will give strength unto his people: the Lord will bless his people with peace.
