¹Halleluja! syng Herren en ny sang, hans Pris i de frommes Forsamling!

¹Praise ye Jah! Sing ye to Jehovah a new song, His praise in an assembly of saints.

²Israel glæde sig over sin Skaber, over deres Konge fryde sig Zions Børn,

²Israel doth rejoice in his Maker, Sons of Zion do joy in their king.

³de skal prise hans Navn under Dans, lovsynge ham med Pauke og Citer;

³They praise His name in a dance, With timbrel and harp sing praise to Him.

⁴thi HERREN har Behag i sit Folk, han smykker de ydmyge med Frelse.

⁴For Jehovah is pleased with His people, He beautifieth the humble with salvation.

⁵De fromme skal juble med Ære, synge på deres Lejer med Fryd,

⁵Exult do saints in honour, They sing aloud on their beds.

⁶med Lovsang til Gud i Mund og tveægget Sværd i Hånd

⁶The exaltation of God [is] in their throat, And a two-edged sword in their hand.

⁷for at tage Hævn over Folkene og revse Folkeslagene,

⁷To do vengeance among nations, Punishments among the peoples.

⁸for at binde deres Konger med Lænker, deres ædle med Kæder af Jern

⁸To bind their kings with chains, And their honoured ones with fetters of iron,

⁹og fuldbyrde på dem den alt skrevne Dom til Ære for alle hans fromme! Halleluja! -

⁹To do among them the judgment written, An honour it [is] for all his saints. Praise ye Jah!
