< Salme 47 >
1 Til Sangmesteren. Af Koras Sønner. En Salme.
O clap your hands, all ye people; shout unto God with the voice of triumph.
2 Alle Folkeslag, klap i Hænderne, bryd ud i jublende Lovsang for Gud!
For Yhwh most high is terrible; he is a great King over all the earth.
3 Thi HERREN, den Højeste, er frygtelig, en Konge stor over hele Jorden.
He shall subdue the people under us, and the nations under our feet.
4 Han bøjede Folkefærd under os og Folkeslag under vor Fod;
He shall choose our inheritance for us, the excellency of Jacob whom he loved. (Selah)
5 han udvalgte os vor Arvelod, Jakob hans elskedes Stolthed. (Sela)
God is gone up with a shout, Yhwh with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Gud steg op under Jubel, HERREN under Hornets Klang.
Sing praises to God, sing praises: sing praises unto our King, sing praises.
7 Syng, ja syng for Gud, syng, ja syng for vor Konge;
For God is the King of all the earth: sing ye praises with understanding.
8 thi han er al Jordens Konge, syng en Sang for Gud.
God reigneth over the heathen: God sitteth upon the throne of his holiness.
9 Gud har vist, han er Folkenes Konge, paa sin hellige Trone har Gud taget Sæde. Folkenes Stormænd samles med Folket, der tilhører Abrahams Gud; thi Guds er Jordens Skjolde, højt ophøjet er han!
The princes of the people are gathered together, even the people of the God of Abraham: for the shields of the earth belong unto God: he is greatly exalted.
