Psalms 99

1 Yahweh, hath become king, Let the peoples, tremble, He is enthroned on the cherubim, Let the earth, shake.

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

2 Yahweh, in Zion, is great, And, high, is he over all the peoples.

Stor er HERREN på Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;

3 Let them thank his Name—great and reverend, Holy, is he!

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

4 Yea, with the strength of a king—justice, he loveth, —Thou, hast established equity, Justice and righteousness in Jacob, thou, hast wrought.

Du er en Konge, der elsker Retfærd, Retten har du grundfæstet, i Jakob, øved du Ret og Retfærd.

5 Exalt Yahweh our God, And bow down at his footstool, Holy, is he!

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

6 Moses and Aaron, [were] among his priests, And, Samuel, [was] among them who were calling upon his Name, Who were calling upon Yahweh, and, he, used to answer them:

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

7 In the pillar of cloud, used he to speak unto them, They kept his testimonies, and the statute he gave them.

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

8 O Yahweh our God! thou, answeredst them, —A pardoning GOD, thou becamest to them, Yet one bringing vengeance on their deeds.

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

9 Exalt Yahweh our God, And bow down towards his holy mountain, For, holy, is Yahweh our God.

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