< Salme 96 >

1 Syng HERREN en ny Sang, syng for HERREN, al Jorden,
O sing unto the LORD a new song: sing unto the LORD, all the earth.
2 syng for HERREN og lov hans Navn, fortæl om hans Frelse Dag efter Dag,
Sing unto the LORD, bless his name; shew forth his salvation from day to day.
3 kundgør hans Ære blandt Folkene, hans Undere blandt alle Folkeslag!
Declare his glory among the heathen, his wonders among all people.
4 Thi stor og højlovet er HERREN, forfærdelig over alle Guder;
For the LORD [is] great, 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 nations [are] idols: but the LORD made the heavens.
6 For hans Aasyn er Højhed og Hæder, Lov og Pris i hans Helligdom.
Honour and majesty [are] before him: strength and beauty [are] in his sanctuary.
7 Giv HERREN, I Folkeslags Slægter, giv HERREN Ære og Pris,
Give unto the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give unto the LORD glory and strength.
8 giv HERREN hans Navns Ære, bring Gaver og kom til hans Forgaarde,
Give unto the LORD 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!
O worship the LORD in the beauty of holiness: fear 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 heathen [that] the LORD reigneth: the world also shall be established that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people righteously.
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 be joyful, and all that [is] therein: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice
13 for HERRENS Aasyn, thi han kommer, han kommer at dømme Jorden; han dømmer Jorden med Retfærd og Folkene i sin Trofasthed.
Before the LORD: for he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he shall judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
