< Psalms 99 >
1 Jehovah reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits above the cherubim, let the earth be moved.
Herren regerer, Folkene bæve; han sidder over Keruber, Jorden ryster.
2 Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.
Herren er stor i Zion, og han er ophøjet over alle Folkene.
3 Let them praise thy great and awesome name. Holy is he.
De skulle prise dit Navn som stort og forfærdeligt — hellig er han! —
4 The king's strength also loves justice. Thou establish equity. Thou execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.
Og Kongens Vælde elsker Ret; du har befæstet Retvished, du har gjort Ret og Retfærdighed i Jakob.
5 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. Holy is he.
Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans Fødders Fodskammel — hellig er han! —
6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who call upon his name, they called upon Jehovah, and he answered them.
Mose og Aron iblandt hans Præster og Samuel iblandt dem, som paakaldte hans Navn, raabte til Herren, og han bønhørte dem.
7 He spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.
Han talte til dem i Skystøtten; de holdt hans Vidnesbyrd og den Skik, som han gav dem.
8 Thou answered them, O Jehovah our God. Thou were a God who forgave them, though thou took vengeance on their doings.
Herre, vor Gud! du bønhørte dem, du var dem en Gud, som tilgav dem, men ogsaa en Hævner over deres Gerninger.
9 Exalt ye Jehovah our God, and worship at his holy hill. For Jehovah our God is holy.
Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans hellige Bjerg; thi hellig er Herren vor Gud.
