< Psalms 96 >
1 Sing to the LORD a new song! Sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Syng for Herren en ny sang, syng for Herren, all jorden!
2 Sing to the LORD! Bless his name! Proclaim his salvation from day to day!
Syng for Herren, lov hans navn, forkynn fra dag til dag hans frelse!
3 Declare his glory among the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
Fortell blandt hedningene hans ære, blandt alle folkene hans undergjerninger!
4 For the LORD is great, and greatly to be praised! He is to be feared above all gods.
For stor er Herren og høilovet, forferdelig er han over alle guder.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but the LORD made the heavens.
For alle folkenes guder er intet; men Herren har gjort himmelen.
6 Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
Høihet og herlighet er for hans åsyn, styrke og prydelse er i hans helligdom.
7 Ascribe to the LORD, you families of nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
Gi Herren, I folkeslekter, gi Herren ære og makt!
8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
Gi Herren hans navns ære, bær frem gaver og kom til hans forgårder!
9 Worship the LORD in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth.
Tilbed Herren i hellig prydelse, bev for hans åsyn, all jorden!
10 Say among the nations, “The LORD reigns.” The world is also established. It cannot be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.
Si blandt hedningene: Herren er blitt konge, og jorderike står fast, det rokkes ikke; han dømmer folkene med rettvishet.
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and its fullness!
Himmelen glede sig, og jorden fryde sig, havet bruse og alt det som fyller det!
12 Let the field and all that is in it exult! Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy
Marken fryde sig og alt det som er på den! Da jubler alle trær i skogen
13 before the LORD; for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, the peoples with his truth.
for Herrens åsyn; for han kommer, han kommer for å dømme jorden; han skal dømme jorderike i rettferdighet og folkene i sin trofasthet.
