< Psalms 96 >
1 Sing to Jehovah a new song, Sing to Jehovah all the earth.
Syng for Herren en ny sang, syng for Herren, all jorden!
2 Sing to Jehovah, bless His name, Proclaim from day to day His salvation.
Syng for Herren, lov hans navn, forkynn fra dag til dag hans frelse!
3 Declare among nations His honour, Among all the peoples His wonders.
Fortell blandt hedningene hans ære, blandt alle folkene hans undergjerninger!
4 For great [is] Jehovah, and praised greatly, Fearful He [is] over all gods.
For stor er Herren og høilovet, forferdelig er han over alle guder.
5 For all the gods of the peoples [are] nought, And Jehovah made the heavens.
For alle folkenes guder er intet; men Herren har gjort himmelen.
6 Honour and majesty [are] before Him, Strength and beauty in His sanctuary.
Høihet og herlighet er for hans åsyn, styrke og prydelse er i hans helligdom.
7 Ascribe to Jehovah, O families of the peoples, Ascribe to Jehovah honour and strength.
Gi Herren, I folkeslekter, gi Herren ære og makt!
8 Ascribe to Jehovah the honour of His name, Lift up a present and come in to His courts.
Gi Herren hans navns ære, bær frem gaver og kom til hans forgårder!
9 Bow yourselves to Jehovah, In the honour of holiness, Be afraid of His presence, all the earth.
Tilbed Herren i hellig prydelse, bev for hans åsyn, all jorden!
10 Say among nations, 'Jehovah hath reigned, Also — established is the world, unmoved, He judgeth the peoples in uprightness.'
Si blandt hedningene: Herren er blitt konge, og jorderike står fast, det rokkes ikke; han dømmer folkene med rettvishet.
11 The heavens joy, and the earth is joyful, The sea and its fulness roar.
Himmelen glede sig, og jorden fryde sig, havet bruse og alt det som fyller det!
12 The field exulteth, and all that [is] in it, Then sing do all trees of the forest,
Marken fryde sig og alt det som er på den! Da jubler alle trær i skogen
13 Before Jehovah, for He hath come, For He hath come to judge the earth. He judgeth the world in righteousness, And the peoples in His faithfulness!
for Herrens åsyn; for han kommer, han kommer for å dømme jorden; han skal dømme jorderike i rettferdighet og folkene i sin trofasthet.
