Salme 99

1 HERREN har vist, han er Konge, Folkene bæver, han troner paa Keruber, Jorden skælver!

The LORD reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned among the cherubim. Let the earth be moved.

2 Stor er HERREN paa Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;

The LORD is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.

3 de priser dit Navn, det store og frygtelige; hellig er han!

Let them praise your great and awesome name. He is Holy!

4 Du er en Konge, der elsker Retfærd, Retten har du grundfæstet, i Jakob øved du Ret og Retfærd.

The King’s strength also loves justice. You establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

5 Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans Fødders Skammel; hellig er han!

Exalt the LORD our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy!

6 Moses og Aron er blandt hans Præster og Samuel blandt dem, der paakalder hans Navn; de raaber til HERREN, han svarer;

Moses and Aaron were among his priests, Samuel was among those who call on his name. They called on the LORD, and he answered them.

7 i Skystøtten taler han til dem, de holder hans Vidnesbyrd, Loven, han gav dem;

He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.

8 HERRE vor Gud, du svarer dem. Du var dem en Gud, som tilgav og frikendte dem, for hvad de gjorde.

You answered them, LORD our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for their doings.

9 Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans hellige Bjerg, thi hellig er HERREN vor Gud!

Exalt the LORD, our God. Worship at his holy hill, for the LORD, our God, is holy!
