< Salme 96 >

1 Syng HERREN en ny Sang, syng for HERREN, al Jorden,
Sing ye 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; publish his salvation from day to day.
3 kundgør hans Ære blandt Folkene, hans Undere blandt alle Folkeslag!
Declare his glory among the nations, his wondrous works among all the peoples.
4 Thi stor og højlovet er HERREN, forfærdelig over alle Guder;
For Jehovah is great and exceedingly to be praised; he is terrible 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.
Majesty and splendour are before him; strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
7 Giv HERREN, I Folkeslags Slægter, giv HERREN Ære og Pris,
Give unto Jehovah, ye families of peoples, give unto Jehovah glory and strength;
8 giv HERREN hans Navns Ære, bring Gaver og kom til hans Forgaarde,
Give unto Jehovah the glory of his name; bring an oblation and come into his courts;
9 tilbed HERREN i helligt Skrud, bæv for hans Aasyn, al Jorden!
Worship Jehovah in holy splendour; 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! yea, the world is established, it shall not be moved; he will execute judgment upon the peoples with equity.
11 Himlen glæde sig, Jorden juble, Havet med dets Fylde bruse,
Let the heavens rejoice, and let the earth be glad; 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 forest 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 in his faithfulness.
