Salmenes 93

1 Herren er konge, han hev klædt seg i høgd; Herren hev klædt seg, han hev gyrdt seg med styrke, jordriket stend fast, det let seg ikkje rikka.

The Lord has taken his seat on the throne, clothed with majesty, armed with might. Now the world stands firm, to be shaken no more,

2 Fast er din kongsstol frå fordoms tid, frå æva er du.

firm stands your throne from all eternity. You are from everlasting.

3 Straumar hev lyft, Herre, straumar hev lyft si røyst, straumar lyfter upp sin dur.

The floods, O Lord, have lifted, the floods have lifted their voice, the floods lift up their roar.

4 Men meir enn duren av dei store vatn, dei herlege, havbroti, er Herren herleg i det høge.

But more grand than the great roaring waters, more grand than the ocean waves, grand on the height stands the Lord.

5 Dine vitnemål er ovleg trufaste; heilagdom høver for huset ditt, Herre, so lenge som dagarne varer.

What you have ordained is most sure; most sure shall your house stand inviolate, O Lord, for ever and ever.
