Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble; He is enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake.

Herren regerer, Folkene bæve; han sidder over Keruber, Jorden ryster.

2 The LORD is great in Zion; and He is high above all the peoples.

Herren er stor i Zion, og han er ophøjet over alle Folkene.

3 Let them praise Thy name as great and awful; Holy is He.

De skulle prise dit Navn som stort og forfærdeligt — hellig er han! —

4 The strength also of the king who loveth justice — Thou hast established equity, Thou hast executed justice and righteousness in Jacob.

Og Kongens Vælde elsker Ret; du har befæstet Retvished, du har gjort Ret og Retfærdighed i Jakob.

5 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and prostrate yourselves at His footstool; Holy is He.

Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans Fødders Fodskammel — hellig er han! —

6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, and Samuel among them that call upon His name, did call upon the LORD, and He answered them.

Mose og Aron iblandt hans Præster og Samuel iblandt dem, som paakaldte hans Navn, raabte til Herren, og han bønhørte dem.

7 He spoke unto them in the pillar of cloud; they kept His testimonies, and the statute that He gave them.

Han talte til dem i Skystøtten; de holdt hans Vidnesbyrd og den Skik, som han gav dem.

8 O LORD our God, Thou didst answer them; a forgiving God wast Thou unto them, though Thou tookest vengeance of their misdeeds.

Herre, vor Gud! du bønhørte dem, du var dem en Gud, som tilgav dem, men ogsaa en Hævner over deres Gerninger.

9 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at His holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans hellige Bjerg; thi hellig er Herren vor Gud.
