< Psalms 99 >
1 The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble; He is enthroned upon the cherubim; let the earth quake.
HERREN har vist, han er Konge, Folkene bæver, han troner på Keruber, Jorden skælver!
2 The LORD is great in Zion; and He is high above all the peoples.
Stor er HERREN på Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;
3 Let them praise Thy name as great and awful; Holy is He.
de priser dit Navn, det store og frygtelige; 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.
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 prostrate yourselves at His footstool; 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 them that call upon His name, did call upon the LORD, and He answered 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 unto them in the pillar of cloud; they kept His testimonies, and the statute that He gave them.
i Skystøtten taler han til dem, de holder hans Vidnesbyrd, Loven, 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 svarer dem. Du var dem en Gud, som tilgav og frikendte dem, for hvad de gjorde.
9 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at 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!
