¹Jubler i Herren, I retfærdige, for de oprigtige sømmer sig Lovsang;

¹Sing, ye righteous, in Jehovah, For upright ones praise [is] comely.

²lov HERREN med Citer, tak ham til tistrenget Harpe;

²Give ye thanks to Jehovah with a harp, With psaltery of ten strings sing praise to Him,

³en ny Sang synge I ham, leg lifligt på Strenge til Jubelråb!

³Sing ye to Him a new song, Play skilfully with shouting.

⁴Thi sandt er HERRENs Ord, og al hans Gerning er trofast;

⁴For upright [is] the word of Jehovah, And all His work [is] in faithfulness.

⁵han elsker Retfærd og Ret, af HERRENs Miskundhed er Jorden fuld.

⁵Loving righteousness and judgment, Of the kindness of Jehovah is the earth full.

⁶Ved HERRENs Ord blev Himlen skabt og al dens Hær ved hans Munds Ånde.

⁶By the word of Jehovah The heavens have been made, And by the breath of His mouth all their host.

⁷Som i Vandsæk samled han Havets Vand, lagde Dybets Vande i Forrådskamre.

⁷Gathering as a heap the waters of the sea, Putting in treasuries the depths.

⁸Al Jorden skal frygte for HERREN, Alverdens Beboere skælve for ham;

⁸Afraid of Jehovah are all the earth, Of Him are all the inhabitants of the world afraid.

⁹thi han talede, så skete det, han bød, så stod det der.

⁹For He hath said, and it is, He hath commanded, and it standeth.

¹⁰HERREN kuldkasted Folkenes Råd, gjorde Folkeslags Tanker til intet;

¹⁰Jehovah made void the counsel of nations, He disallowed the thoughts of the peoples.

¹¹HERRENs Råd står fast for evigt, hans Hjertes Tanker fra Slægt til Slægt.

¹¹The counsel of Jehovah to the age standeth, The thoughts of His heart to all generations.

¹²Saligt det Folk, der har HERREN til Gud, det Folkefærd, han valgte til Arvelod!

¹²O the happiness of the nation whose God [is] Jehovah, Of the people He did choose, For an inheritance to Him.

¹³HERREN skuer fra Himlen, ser på alle Menneskens Børn;

¹³From the heavens hath Jehovah looked, He hath seen all the sons of men.

¹⁴fra sit Højsæde holder han Øje med alle, som bor på Jorden;

¹⁴From the fixed place of His dwelling, He looked unto all inhabitants of the earth;

¹⁵han, som danned deres Hjerter til Hobe, gennemskuer alt deres Værk.

¹⁵Who is forming their hearts together, Who is attending unto all their works.

¹⁶Ej frelses en Konge ved sin store Stridsmagt, ej fries en Helt ved sin store Kraft;

¹⁶The king is not saved by the multitude of a force. A mighty man is not delivered, By abundance of power.

¹⁷til Frelse slår Stridshesten ikke til, trods sin store Styrke redder den ikke.

¹⁷A false thing [is] the horse for safety, And by the abundance of his strength He doth not deliver.

¹⁸Men HERRENs Øje ser til gudfrygtige, til dem, der håber på Nåden,

¹⁸Lo, the eye of Jehovah [is] to those fearing Him, To those waiting for His kindness,

¹⁹for at fri deres Sjæl fra Døden og holde dem i Live i Hungerens Tid.

¹⁹To deliver from death their soul, And to keep them alive in famine.

²⁰På HERREN bier vor Sjæl, han er vor Hjælp og vort Skjold;

²⁰Our soul hath waited for Jehovah, Our help and our shield [is] He,

²¹thi vort Hjerte glæder sig i ham, vi stoler på hans hellige Navn.

²¹For in Him doth our heart rejoice, For in His holy name we have trusted.

²²Din Miskundhed være over os, HERRE, såsom vi håber på dig.

²²Let Thy kindness, O Jehovah, be upon us, As we have waited for Thee!
