< Psalms 96 >
1 When the house was built after the Captivity, a Song of David. Sing to the Lord a new song; sing to the Lord, all the earth.
Synger for Herren en ny Sang, synger for Herren al Jorden!
2 Sing to the Lord, bless his name: proclaim his salvation from day to day.
Synger for Herren, lover hans Navn, bebuder hans Frelse fra Dag til Dag!
3 Publish his glory amongst the Gentiles, his wonderful works amongst all people.
Forkynder hans Ære iblandt Hedningerne, hans underfulde Gerninger iblandt alle Folkeslag.
4 For the Lord is great, and greatly to be praised: he is terrible above all gods.
Thi Herren er stor og saare priselig, han er forfærdelig fremfor alle Guder.
5 For all the gods of the heathen are devils: but the Lord made the heavens.
Thi alle Folkenes Guder ere Afguder; men Herren har skabt Himmelen.
6 Thanksgiving and beauty are before him: holiness and majesty are in his sanctuary.
Majestæt og Herlighed ere for hans Ansigt, Magt og Prydelse ere i hans Helligdom.
7 Bring to the Lord, you families of the Gentiles, bring to the Lord glory and honour.
Giver Herren, I Folkeslægter! giver Herren Ære og Magt!
8 Bring to the Lord the glory [becoming] his name: take offerings, and go into his courts.
Giver Herren hans Navns Ære, frembærer Skænk og kommer til hans Forgaarde!
9 Worship the Lord in his holy court: let all the earth tremble before him.
Tilbeder Herren i hellig Prydelse, bæv for hans Ansigt al Jorden!
10 Say amongst the heathen, The Lord reigns: for he has established the world so that it shall not be moved: he shall judge the people in righteousness.
Siger iblandt Hedningerne: Herren regerer, og Jorderige staar fast, det rokkes ej; han skal dømme Folkene med Retvished.
11 Let the heavens rejoice, and the earth exult; let the sea be moved, and the fullness of it.
Himlene glæde sig, og Jorden fryde sig; Havet bruse og dets Fylde!
12 The plains shall rejoice, and all things in them: then shall all the trees of the wood exult before the presence of the Lord:
Marken fryde sig og alt, hvad der er paa; da skulle alle Træer i Skoven synge med Fryd
13 for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth; he shall judge the world in righteousness, and the people with his truth.
for Herrens Ansigt; thi han kommer, thi han kommer til at dømme Jorden; han skal dømme Jorderige med Retfærdighed og Folkene med sin Sandhed.
