Psalms 96
1 Sing to Jehovah a new song. Sing to Jehovah, all the earth.
Syng Herren ein ny song, syng for Herren, all jordi!
2 Sing to Jehovah. 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 the nations, his marvelous works among all the peoples.
Fortel millom heidningar hans æra, millom alle folkeslag hans under!
4 For great is Jehovah, and greatly to be praised. He is to be feared above all gods.
For Herren er stor og mykje lovsungen, skræmeleg er han framfor alle gudar.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols, but Jehovah made the heavens.
For alle gudar hjå folki er avgudar; men Herren hev gjort himmelen.
6 Honor and majesty are before him. Strength and beauty are in his sanctuary.
Høgd og herlegdom er for hans åsyn, styrke og prydnad i hans heilagdom.
7 Ascribe to Jehovah, you families of nations, ascribe to Jehovah glory and strength.
Gjev Herren, de folke-ætter, gjev Herren æra og magt!
8 Ascribe to Jehovah the glory due to his name. Bring an offering, and come into his courts.
Gjev Herren hans namns æra, tak gåvor med og kom i hans fyregardar!
9 Worship Jehovah in holy array. Tremble before him, all the earth.
Tilbed Herren i heilagt skrud, skjelv for hans åsyn, all jordi!
10 Say among the nations, "Jehovah reigns." The world is also established. It can't be moved. He will judge the peoples with equity.
Seg millom heidningarne: «Herren er konge, og jordriket stend fast, det let seg ikkje rikka; han dømer folki med rettvisa.»
11 Let the heavens be glad, and let the earth rejoice. Let the sea roar, and its fullness.
Himmelen glede seg, og jordi fagne seg, havet dure og alt som i det er!
12 Let the field and all that is in it exult. Then all the trees of the woods shall sing for joy
Marki frygde seg og alt det som på marki er! Då fegnast alle tre i skogen
13 before Jehovah; for he comes, for he comes to judge the earth. He will judge the world with righteousness, the peoples with his truth.
for Herrens åsyn; for han kjem, for han kjem til å døma jordi; han skal døma jordriket med rettferd og folki i sin truskap.
