Psalms 96
1 Sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth.
Syng Herren ein ny song, syng for Herren, all jordi!
2 Sing to the LORD, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.
Syng for Herren, lova hans namn, forkynn frå dag til dag hans frelsa!
3 Declare His glory among the nations, His wonderful deeds among all peoples.
Fortel millom heidningar hans æra, millom alle folkeslag hans under!
4 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised; He is to be feared above all gods.
For Herren er stor og mykje lovsungen, skræmeleg er han framfor alle gudar.
5 For all the gods of the nations are idols, but it is the LORD who made the heavens.
For alle gudar hjå folki er avgudar; men Herren hev gjort himmelen.
6 Splendor and majesty are before Him; strength and beauty fill His sanctuary.
Høgd og herlegdom er for hans åsyn, styrke og prydnad i hans heilagdom.
7 Ascribe to the LORD, O families of the nations, ascribe to the LORD glory and strength.
Gjev Herren, de folke-ætter, gjev Herren æra og magt!
8 Ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name; bring an offering and enter His courts.
Gjev Herren hans namns æra, tak gåvor med og kom i hans fyregardar!
9 Worship the LORD in the splendor of His holiness; tremble before Him, all the earth.
Tilbed Herren i heilagt skrud, skjelv for hans åsyn, all jordi!
10 Declare among the nations: “The LORD reigns!” The world is firmly established; it cannot be moved; He will judge the peoples with equity.
Seg millom heidningarne: «Herren er konge, og jordriket stend fast, det let seg ikkje rikka; han dømer folki med rettvisa.»
11 Let the heavens be glad and the earth rejoice; let the sea resound, and all that fills it.
Himmelen glede seg, og jordi fagne seg, havet dure og alt som i det er!
12 Let the fields exult, and all that is in them. Then all the trees of the forest will sing for joy
Marki frygde seg og alt det som på marki er! Då fegnast alle tre i skogen
13 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.
for Herrens åsyn; for han kjem, for han kjem til å døma jordi; han skal døma jordriket med rettferd og folki i sin truskap.
