Salme 99

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

Jehovah reigneth: let the peoples tremble. He sitteth [between the] cherubim: let the earth be moved.

2 Stor er HERREN på Zion, ophøjet over alle Folkeslag;

Jehovah is great in Zion, and he is high above all the peoples.

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

They shall praise thy great and terrible name, — it is holy! —

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

And the strength of the king that loveth justice. Thou hast established equity: it is thou that executest judgment and righteousness in Jacob.

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

Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at his footstool. He is holy!

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

Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among them that call upon his name: they called unto Jehovah, and he answered them.

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

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

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

Jehovah, our God, thou answeredst them: a forgiving God wast thou unto them, though thou tookest vengeance of their doings.

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

Exalt Jehovah our God, and worship at the hill of his holiness; for holy is Jehovah our God.
