Psalms 99

1 The Lord reigneth; people tremble: he sitteth enthroned over the cherubim; the earth is moved.

HERREN har vist, han er Konge, Folkene bæver, han troner paa Keruber, Jorden skælver!

2 The Lord is great in Zion; and he is exalted above all the people.

Stor er HERREN paa Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;

3 They will give thanks to thy name, great, and terrible, [and] holy it is.

de priser dit Navn, det store og frygtelige; hellig er han!

4 And to the power of the king who loveth justice and righteousness hast thou truly executed 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 bow yourselves down before his footstool: he is holy.—

Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans Fødders Skammel; hellig er han!

6 Moses and Aaron were among his priests, and Samuel among those that call on his name; they called on the Lord, and he answered them.

Moses og Aron er blandt hans Præster og Samuel blandt dem, der paakalder hans Navn; de raaber til HERREN, han svarer;

7 In the pillar of cloud he used to speak unto them: they kept his testimonies, and the statutes which he had given unto them.

i Skystøtten taler han til dem, de holder hans Vidnesbyrd, Loven, han gav dem;

8 O Lord, our God, thou didst answer them: thou wast a forgiving God unto them, yet also an avenger for their wrong doings.

HERRE vor Gud, du svarer dem. Du var dem en Gud, som tilgav og frikendte dem, for hvad de gjorde.

9 Exalt the Lord our God, and bow yourselves down before his holy mount; for holy is the Lord our God.

Ophøj HERREN vor Gud, bøj eder for hans hellige Bjerg, thi hellig er HERREN vor Gud!
