< Psalms 96 >
1 Sing to YHWH a new song, Sing to YHWH all the earth.
Syng Herren ein ny song, syng for Herren, all jordi!
2 Sing to YHWH, bless His Name, Proclaim His salvation from day to day.
Syng for Herren, lova hans namn, forkynn frå dag til dag hans frelsa!
3 Declare His glory among nations, His wonders among all the peoples.
Fortel millom heidningar hans æra, millom alle folkeslag hans under!
4 For YHWH [is] great, and greatly praised, He [is] fearful over all gods.
For Herren er stor og mykje lovsungen, skræmeleg er han framfor alle gudar.
5 For all the gods of the peoples [are] nothing, And YHWH made the heavens.
For alle gudar hjå folki er avgudar; men Herren hev gjort himmelen.
6 Splendor and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and beauty in His sanctuary.
Høgd og herlegdom er for hans åsyn, styrke og prydnad i hans heilagdom.
7 Ascribe to YHWH, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to YHWH glory and strength.
Gjev Herren, de folke-ætter, gjev Herren æra og magt!
8 Ascribe to YHWH the glory of His Name, Lift up a present and come into His courts.
Gjev Herren hans namns æra, tak gåvor med og kom i hans fyregardar!
9 Bow yourselves to YHWH, In the honor of holiness, Be afraid of His presence, all the earth.
Tilbed Herren i heilagt skrud, skjelv for hans åsyn, all jordi!
10 Say among nations, “YHWH has reigned, Also—the world is established, unmoved, He judges the peoples in uprightness.”
Seg millom heidningarne: «Herren er konge, og jordriket stend fast, det let seg ikkje rikka; han dømer folki med rettvisa.»
11 The heavens rejoice, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fullness roar.
Himmelen glede seg, og jordi fagne seg, havet dure og alt som i det er!
12 The field exults, and all that [is] in it, Then all trees of the forest sing,
Marki frygde seg og alt det som på marki er! Då fegnast alle tre i skogen
13 Before YHWH, for He has come, For He has come to judge the earth. He judges the world in righteousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness!
for Herrens åsyn; for han kjem, for han kjem til å døma jordi; han skal døma jordriket med rettferd og folki i sin truskap.
