Salme 96
1 Syng HERREN en ny Sang, syng for HERREN, al Jorden,
O sing to the LORD a new song: sing to the LORD, all the earth.
2 syng for HERREN og lov hans Navn, fortæl om hans Frelse Dag efter Dag,
Sing to the LORD, 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 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.
Honor and majesty [are] before him: strength and beauty [are] in his sanctuary.
7 Giv HERREN, I Folkeslags Slægter, giv HERREN Ære og Pris,
Give to the LORD, O ye kindreds of the people, give to the LORD glory and strength.
8 giv HERREN hans Navns Ære, bring Gaver og kom til hans Forgaarde,
Give to the LORD the glory [due to] 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 will 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 fullness of it.
12 Marken juble og alt, hvad den bærer! Da fryder sig alle Skovens Træer
Let the field be joyful, and all that [is] in it: then shall all the trees of the wood rejoice before the LORD:
13 for HERRENS Aasyn, thi han kommer, han kommer at dømme Jorden; han dømmer Jorden med Retfærd og Folkene i sin Trofasthed.
For he cometh, for he cometh to judge the earth: he will judge the world with righteousness, and the people with his truth.
