Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigneth; let the peoples tremble: he sitteth upon the cherubim; let the earth be moved.

Herren regerer, Folkene bæve; han sidder over Keruber, Jorden ryster.

2 The LORD is great in Zion; and he is high above all the peoples.

Herren er stor i Zion, og han er ophøjet over alle Folkene.

3 Let them praise thy great and terrible name: holy is he.

De skulle prise dit Navn som stort og forfærdeligt — hellig er han! —

4 The king’s strength also loveth judgment; thou dost establish equity, thou executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

Og Kongens Vælde elsker Ret; du har befæstet Retvished, du har gjort Ret og Retfærdighed i Jakob.

5 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his footstool: holy is he.

Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans Fødders Fodskammel — hellig er han! —

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

Mose og Aron iblandt hans Præster og Samuel iblandt dem, som paakaldte hans Navn, raabte til Herren, og han bønhørte dem.

7 He spake unto them in the pillar of cloud: they kept his testimonies, and the statute that he gave them.

Han talte til dem i Skystøtten; de holdt hans Vidnesbyrd og den Skik, som han gav dem.

8 Thou answeredst them, O LORD our God: thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

Herre, vor Gud! du bønhørte dem, du var dem en Gud, som tilgav dem, men ogsaa en Hævner over deres Gerninger.

9 Exalt ye the LORD our God, and worship at his holy hill; for the LORD our God is holy.

Ophøjer Herren vor Gud og tilbeder for hans hellige Bjerg; thi hellig er Herren vor Gud.
