< Salme 96 >
1 Syng HERREN en ny Sang, syng for HERREN, al Jorden,
Oh sing unto Jehovah a new song: Sing unto Jehovah, all the earth.
2 syng for HERREN og lov hans Navn, fortæl om hans Frelse Dag efter Dag,
Sing unto Jehovah, bless his name; Show forth his salvation from day to day.
3 kundgør hans Ære blandt Folkene, hans Undere blandt alle Folkeslag!
Declare his glory among the nations, His marvellous works among all the peoples.
4 Thi stor og højlovet er HERREN, forfærdelig over alle Guder;
For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised: He is to be feared above all gods.
5 thi alle Folkeslagenes Guder er Afguder, HERREN er Himlens Skaber.
For all the gods of the peoples are idols; But Jehovah made the heavens.
6 For hans Aasyn er Højhed og Hæder, Lov og Pris i hans Helligdom.
Honor and majesty are before him: Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Giv HERREN, I Folkeslags Slægter, giv HERREN Ære og Pris,
Ascribe unto Jehovah, ye kindreds of the peoples, Ascribe unto Jehovah glory and strength.
8 giv HERREN hans Navns Ære, bring Gaver og kom til hans Forgaarde,
Ascribe unto Jehovah the glory due unto his name: Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
9 tilbed HERREN i helligt Skrud, bæv for hans Aasyn, al Jorden!
Oh worship Jehovah in holy array: Tremble before him, all the earth.
10 Sig blandt Folkeslag: »HERREN har vist, han er Konge, han grundfæsted Jorden, den rokkes ikke, med Retfærd dømmer han Folkene.«
Say among the nations, Jehovah reigneth: The world also is established that it cannot be moved: He will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Himlen glæde sig, Jorden juble, Havet med dets Fylde bruse,
Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice; Let the sea roar, and the fulness thereof;
12 Marken juble og alt, hvad den bærer! Da fryder sig alle Skovens Træer
Let the field exult, and all that is therein; Then shall all the trees of the wood sing for joy
13 for HERRENS Aasyn, thi han kommer, han kommer at dømme Jorden; han dømmer Jorden med Retfærd og Folkene i sin Trofasthed.
Before Jehovah; for he cometh, For he cometh to judge the earth: He will judge the world with righteousness, And the peoples with his truth.
