< Psalms 99 >
1 A psalm for David himself. The Lord hath reigned, let the people be angry: he that sitteth on the cherubims: 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 Sion, and high above all people.
Stor er HERREN på Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;
3 Let them give praise to thy great name: for it is terrible and holy:
de priser dit Navn, det store og frygtelige; hellig er han!
4 And the king’s honour loveth judgment. Thou hast prepared directions: thou hast done judgment and justice in Jacob.
Du er en Konge, der elsker Retfærd, Retten har du grundfæstet, i Jakob, øved du Ret og Retfærd.
5 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore his footstool, for it is holy.
Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans Fødders Skammel; hellig er han!
6 Moses and Aaron among his priests: and Samuel among them that call upon his name. They called upon the Lord, and he heard them:
Moses og Aron er blandt hans Præster og Samuel blandt dem, der påkalder hans Navn; de råber til HERREN, han svarer;
7 He spoke to them in the pillar of the cloud. They kept his testimonies, and the commandment which he gave them.
i Skystøtten taler han til dem, de holder hans Vidnesbyrd, Loven, han gav dem;
8 Thou didst hear them, O Lord our God: thou wast a merciful God to them, and taking vengeance on all their inventions.
HERRE vor Gud, du svarer dem. Du var dem en Gud, som tilgav og frikendte dem, for hvad de gjorde.
9 Exalt ye the Lord our God, and adore at his holy mountain: for the Lord our God is holy.
Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans hellige Bjerg, thi hellig er HERREN vor Gud!
