< Salme 47 >
1 Til Sangmesteren. Af Koras Sønner. En Salme.
To the Overseer. — By sons of Korah. A Psalm. All ye peoples, clap the hand, Shout to God with a voice of singing,
2 Alle Folkeslag, klap i Hænderne, bryd ud i jublende Lovsang for Gud!
For Jehovah Most High [is] fearful, A great king over all the earth.
3 Thi HERREN, den Højeste, er frygtelig, en Konge stor over hele Jorden.
He leadeth peoples under us, and nations under our feet.
4 Han bøjede Folkefærd under os og Folkeslag under vor Fod;
He doth choose for us our inheritance, The excellency of Jacob that He loves. (Selah)
5 han udvalgte os vor Arvelod, Jakob hans elskedes Stolthed. (Sela)
God hath gone up with a shout, Jehovah with the sound of a trumpet.
6 Gud steg op under Jubel, HERREN under Hornets Klang.
Praise God — praise — give praise to our king, praise.
7 Syng, ja syng for Gud, syng, ja syng for vor Konge;
For king of all the earth [is] God, Give praise, O understanding one.
8 thi han er al Jordens Konge, syng en Sang for Gud.
God hath reigned over nations, God hath sat on His holy throne,
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!
Nobles of peoples have been gathered, [With] the people of the God of Abraham, For to God [are] the shields of earth, Greatly hath He been exalted!
