¹HERREN har vist, han er Konge! Jorden juble, lad glædes de mange Strande!

¹Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles rejoice.

²Skyer og Mulm er om ham, Retfærd og Ret er hans Trones Støtte;

²Cloud and darkness [are] round about Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.

³Ild farer frem foran ham, og luer iblandt hans Fjender.

³Fire before Him goeth, And burneth round about His adversaries.

⁴Hans Lyn lyste op på Jorderig, Jorden så det og skjalv;

⁴Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath seen, and is pained.

⁵Bjergene smelted som Voks for HERREN, for hele Jordens Herre;

⁵Hills, like wax, melted before Jehovah, Before the Lord of all the earth.

⁶Himlen forkyndte hans Retfærd, alle Folkeslag skued hans Herlighed.

⁶The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His honour.

⁷Til Skamme blev alle, som dyrkede Billeder, de, som var stolte af deres Afguder; alle Guder bøjed sig for ham.

⁷Ashamed are all servants of a graven image, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.

⁸Zion hørte det og glædede sig, og Judas Døtre jublede over dine Domme, HERRE!

⁸Zion hath heard and rejoiceth, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Thy judgments, O Jehovah.

⁹Thi du, o HERRE, er den Højeste over al Jorden, højt ophøjet over alle Guder!

⁹For Thou, Jehovah, [art] Most High over all the earth, Greatly Thou hast been exalted over all gods.

¹⁰I, som elsker HERREN, hade det onde! Han vogter sine frommes Sjæle og frier dem af de gudløses Hånd;

¹⁰Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.

¹¹over de retfærdige oprinder Lys og Glæde over de oprigtige af Hjertet.

¹¹Light [is] sown for the righteous, And for the upright of heart — joy.

¹²I retfærdige, glæd jer i HERREN, lovsyng hans hellige Navn!

¹²Rejoice, ye righteous, in Jehovah, And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness!
