Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; 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."
Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!” The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity.
11 Himlen glæde sig, Jorden juble, Havet med dets Fylde bruse,
Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it.
12 Marken juble og alt, hvad den bærer! Da fryder sig alle Skovens Træer
Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy
13 for HERRENs Åsyn, thi han kommer, han kommer at dømme Jorden; han dømmer Jorden med Retfærd og Folkene i sin Trofasthed.
before the LORD, for He is coming— He is coming to judge the earth. He will judge the world in righteousness and the peoples in His faithfulness.
