Psalms 99

1 The LORD reigns! Let the peoples tremble. He sits enthroned amongst the cherubim. Let the earth be moved.

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

2 The LORD is great in Zion. He is high above all the peoples.

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

3 Let them praise your great and awesome name. He is Holy!

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

4 The King’s strength also loves justice. You establish equity. You execute justice and righteousness in Jacob.

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

5 Exalt the LORD our God. Worship at his footstool. He is Holy!

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

6 Moses and Aaron were amongst his priests, Samuel was amongst those who call on his name. They called on 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 spoke to them in the pillar of cloud. They kept his testimonies, the statute that he gave them.

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

8 You answered them, LORD our God. You are a God who forgave them, although you took vengeance for 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 the LORD, our God. 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.
