< Psalms 99 >
1 YHWH has reigned, peoples tremble, The Inhabitant of the cherubim, the earth shakes.
Herren regerer, Folkene bæve; han sidder over Keruber, Jorden ryster.
2 YHWH [is] great in Zion, And He [is] high over all the peoples.
Herren er stor i Zion, og han er ophøjet over alle Folkene.
3 They praise Your Name, “Great, and fearful, [it] is holy!”
De skulle prise dit Navn som stort og forfærdeligt — hellig er han! —
4 And the strength of the king Has loved judgment, You have established uprightness; Judgment and righteousness in Jacob, You have done.
Og Kongens Vælde elsker Ret; du har befæstet Retvished, du har gjort Ret og Retfærdighed i Jakob.
5 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His footstool, He [is] holy.
Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans Fødders Fodskammel — hellig er han! —
6 Moses and Aaron among His priests, And Samuel among those proclaiming His Name. They are calling to YHWH, And He answers them.
Mose og Aron iblandt hans Præster og Samuel iblandt dem, som paakaldte hans Navn, raabte til Herren, og han bønhørte dem.
7 He speaks to them in a pillar of cloud, They have kept His testimonies, And He has given the statute to them.
Han talte til dem i Skystøtten; de holdt hans Vidnesbyrd og den Skik, som han gav dem.
8 O YHWH, our God, You have afflicted them, You have been a forgiving God to them, And taking vengeance on their actions.
Herre, vor Gud! du bønhørte dem, du var dem en Gud, som tilgav dem, men ogsaa en Hævner over deres Gerninger.
9 Exalt our God YHWH, And bow yourselves at His holy hill, For our God YHWH [is] holy!
Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans hellige Bjerg; thi hellig er Herren vor Gud.
