Salme 95

1 Kom, lad os juble for HERREN, raabe af fryd for vor Frelses Klippe,

Come, let's sing for joy to the Lord! Let's shout in triumph to the rock of our salvation!

2 møde med Tak for hans Aasyn, juble i Sang til hans Pris!

Let's go before him with thanksgiving! Let's sing loudly to him in celebration!

3 Thi HERREN er en vældig Gud, en Konge stor over alle Guder;

For the Lord is a great God, a great king above all gods.

4 i hans Haand er Jordens Dybder, Bjergenes Tinder er hans;

He rules over the depths of the earth and the heights of the mountains.

5 Havet er hans, han har skabt det, det tørre Land har hans Hænder dannet.

The sea is his, because he made it; the dry land, because he formed it.

6 Kom, lad os bøje os, kaste os ned, knæle for HERREN, vor Skaber!

Come, let's enter in and worship, let's kneel before the Lord our Creator.

7 Thi han er vor Gud, og vi er det Folk, han vogter, den Hjord, han leder. Ak, lytted I dog i Dag til hans Røst:

For he is our God, and we are the people he looks after like a shepherd, the flock he cares for. If you hear his voice calling you today,

8 »Forhærder ej eders Hjerte som ved Meriba, som dengang ved Massa i Ørkenen,

don't have a hard-hearted attitude, “as you did at Meribah, as you did that day at Massah in the desert,

9 da eders Fædre fristede mig, prøved mig, skønt de havde set mit Værk.

when your forefathers provoked me, testing my patience, even though they had seen everything I'd done.

10 Jeg væmmedes fyrretyve Aar ved denne Slægt, og jeg sagde: Det er et Folk med vildfarne Hjerter, de kender ej mine Veje.

For forty years I was disgusted with that generation, and I said, ‘They are people who are unfaithful to me in their minds, and they refuse to accept my ways.’

11 Saa svor jeg da i min Vrede: De skal ikke gaa ind til min Hvile!«

So in my frustration I vowed, ‘They will certainly not enter my rest.’”
