¹Give thanks to Yahweh! Call on his name! Make his doings known among the peoples.

¹Pris Herren, påkald hans navn, gør hans Gerninger kendte blandt Folkeslag!

²Sing to him, sing praises to him! Tell of all his marvelous works.

²Syng og spil til hans Pris, tal om alle hans Undere;

³Glory in his holy name. Let the heart of those who seek Yahweh rejoice.

³ros jer af hans hellige Navn, eders Hjerte glæde sig, I, som søger HERREN;

⁴Seek Yahweh and his strength. Seek his face forever more.

⁴spørg efter HERREN og hans magt, søg bestandig hans Åsyn;

⁵Remember his marvelous works that he has done; his wonders, and the judgments of his mouth,

⁵kom i Hu de Undere, han gjorde, hans Tegn og hans Munds Domme,

⁶you seed of Abraham, his servant, you children of Jacob, his chosen ones.

⁶I, hans Tjener Abrahams Sæd, hans udvalgte, Jakobs Sønner!

⁷He is Yahweh, our God. His judgments are in all the earth.

⁷Han, HERREN, er vor Gud, hans Domme når ud over Jorden;

⁸He has remembered his covenant forever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations,

⁸han ihukommer for evigt sin Pagt, i tusind Slægter sit Tilsagn,

⁹the covenant which he made with Abraham, his oath to Isaac,

⁹Pagten, han slutted med Abraham, Eden, han tilsvor Isak;

¹⁰and confirmed the same to Jacob for a statute; to Israel for an everlasting covenant,

¹⁰han holdt den i Hævd som Ret for Jakob, en evig Pagt for Israel,

¹¹saying, “To you I will give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance”;

¹¹idet han sagde: "Dig giver jeg Kana'ans Land som eders Arvelod."

¹²when they were but a few men in number, yes, very few, and foreigners in it.

¹²Da de kun var en liden Hob, kun få og fremmede der,

¹³They went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people.

¹³og vandrede fra Folk til Folk, fra et Rige til et andet,

¹⁴He allowed no one to do them wrong. Yes, he reproved kings for their sakes,

¹⁴tillod han ingen at volde dem Men, men tugted for deres Skyld Konger

¹⁵“Don’t touch my anointed ones! Do my prophets no harm!”

¹⁵"Rør ikke mine Salvede, gør ikke mine Profeter ondt!"

¹⁶He called for a famine on the land. He destroyed the food supplies.

¹⁶Hungersnød kaldte han frem over Landet, hver Brødets Støttestav brød han;

¹⁷He sent a man before them. Joseph was sold for a slave.

¹⁷han sendte forud for dem en Mand, Josef solgtes som Træl;

¹⁸They bruised his feet with shackles. His neck was locked in irons,

¹⁸de tvang hans Fødder med Lænker, han kom i Lænker af Jern,

¹⁹until the time that his word happened, and Yahweh’s word proved him true.

¹⁹indtil hans Ord blev opfyldt; ved HERRENs Ord stod han Prøven igennem.

²⁰The king sent and freed him; even the ruler of peoples, and let him go free.

²⁰På Kongens Bud blev han fri, Folkenes Hersker lod ham løs:

²¹He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all of his possessions;

²¹han tog ham til Herre for sit Hus, til Hersker over alt sit Gods;

²²to discipline his princes at his pleasure, and to teach his elders wisdom.

²²han styred hans Øverster efter sin Vilje og viste hans Ældste til Rette.

²³Israel also came into Egypt. Jacob lived in the land of Ham.

²³Og Israel kom til Ægypten, Jakob boede som Gæst i Kamiternes Land.

²⁴He increased his people greatly, and made them stronger than their adversaries.

²⁴Han lod sit Folk blive såre frugtbart og stærkere end dets Fjender;

²⁵He turned their heart to hate his people, to conspire against his servants.

²⁵han vendte deres Sind til Had mod sit Folk og til Træskhed imod sine Tjenere.

²⁶He sent Moses, his servant, and Aaron, whom he had chosen.

²⁶Da sendte han Moses, sin Tjener, og Aron, sin udvalgte Mand;

²⁷They performed miracles among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.

²⁷han gjorde sine Tegn i Ægypten og Undere i Kamiternes Land;

²⁸He sent darkness, and made it dark. They didn’t rebel against his words.

²⁸han sendte Mørke, så blev det mørkt, men de ænsede ikke hans Ord;

²⁹He turned their waters into blood, and killed their fish.

²⁹han gjorde deres Vande til Blod og slog deres Fisk ihjel;

³⁰Their land swarmed with frogs, even in the rooms of their kings.

³⁰af Frøer vrimlede Landet, selv i Kongens Sale var de;

³¹He spoke, and swarms of flies came, and lice in all their borders.

³¹han talede, så kom der Bremser og Myg i alt deres Land;

³²He gave them hail for rain, with lightning in their land.

³²han sendte dem Hagl for Regn og luende Ild i Landet;

³³He struck their vines and also their fig trees, and shattered the trees of their country.

³³han slog både Vinstok og Figen og splintrede Træerne i deres Land;

³⁴He spoke, and the locusts came, and the grasshoppers, without number,

³⁴han talede, så kom der Græshopper, Springere uden Tal,

³⁵ate up every plant in their land; and ate up the fruit of their ground.

³⁵de åd alt Græs i Landet, de åd deres Jords Afgrøde;

³⁶He struck also all the firstborn in their land, the first fruits of all their manhood.

³⁶alt førstefødt i Landet slog han, Førstegrøden af al deres Kraft;

³⁷He brought them forth with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.

³⁷han førte dem ud med Sølv og Guld, ikke een i hans Stammer snubled

³⁸Egypt was glad when they departed, for the fear of them had fallen on them.

³⁸Ægypterne glæded sig, da de drog bort, thi de var grebet af Rædsel for dem.

³⁹He spread a cloud for a covering, fire to give light in the night.

³⁹Han bredte en Sky som Skjul og Ild til at lyse i Natten;

⁴⁰They asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of the sky.

⁴⁰de krævede, han bragte Vagtler, med Himmelbrød mættede han dem;

⁴¹He opened the rock, and waters gushed out. They ran as a river in the dry places.

⁴¹han åbnede Klippen, og Vand strømmede ud, det løb som en Flod i Ørkenen.

⁴²For he remembered his holy word, and Abraham, his servant.

⁴²Thi han kom sit hellige Ord i Hu til Abraham, sin Tjener;

⁴³He brought forth his people with joy, his chosen with singing.

⁴³han lod sit Folk drage ud med Fryd, sine udvalgte under Jubel;

⁴⁴He gave them the lands of the nations. They took the labor of the peoples in possession,

⁴⁴han gav dem Folkenes Lande, de fik Folkeslags Gods i Eje.

⁴⁵that they might keep his statutes, and observe his laws. Praise Yah!

⁴⁵Derfor skulde de holde hans Bud og efterkomme hans Love. Halleluja!
