< Psalms 99 >
1 The Lord is King; let the peoples be in fear: his seat is on the winged ones; let the earth be moved.
HERREN har vist, han er Konge, Folkene bæver, han troner på Keruber, Jorden skælver!
2 The Lord is great in Zion; he is high over all the nations.
Stor er HERREN på Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;
3 Let them give praise to your name, for it is great and to be feared; holy is he.
de priser dit Navn, det store og frygtelige; hellig er han!
4 The king's power is used for righteousness; you give true decisions, judging rightly in the land of Jacob.
Du er en Konge, der elsker Retfærd, Retten har du grundfæstet, i Jakob, øved du Ret og Retfærd.
5 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping at his feet; holy is he.
Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans Fødders Skammel; hellig er han!
6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who gave honour to his name; they made prayers to the Lord, and he gave answers to them.
Moses og Aron er blandt hans Præster og Samuel blandt dem, der påkalder hans Navn; de råber til HERREN, han svarer;
7 His voice came to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his witness, and the law which he gave them.
i Skystøtten taler han til dem, de holder hans Vidnesbyrd, Loven, han gav dem;
8 You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.
HERRE vor Gud, du svarer dem. Du var dem en Gud, som tilgav og frikendte dem, for hvad de gjorde.
9 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping with your faces turned to his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans hellige Bjerg, thi hellig er HERREN vor Gud!
