Salme 99

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

The LORD reigns; let the nations tremble! He is enthroned above the cherubim; let the earth quake!

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

Great is the LORD in Zion; He is exalted 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 mighty King loves justice. You have established equity; You have exercised justice and righteousness in Jacob.

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

Exalt the LORD our God, and 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 called on His name. They called to the LORD and He answered.

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

He spoke to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept His decrees and the statutes He gave them.

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

O LORD our God, You answered them. You were a forgiving God to them, yet an avenger of their misdeeds.

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

Exalt the LORD our God and worship at His holy mountain, for the LORD our God is holy.
