¹Not to us, Yahweh, not to us, but to your name give glory, for your loving kindness, and for your truth’s sake.

¹Ikke os, o Herre, ikke os, men dit navn, det give du ære for din Miskundheds og Trofastheds Skyld!

²Why should the nations say, “Where is their God, now?”

²Hvi skal Folkene sige: "Hvor er dog deres Gud?"

³But our God is in the heavens. He does whatever he pleases.

³Vor Gud, han er i Himlen; alt, hvad han vil, det gør han!

⁴Their idols are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.

⁴Deres Billeder er Sølv og Guld, Værk af Menneskehænder;

⁵They have mouths, but they don’t speak. They have eyes, but they don’t see.

⁵de har Mund, men taler ikke, Øjne, men ser dog ej;

⁶They have ears, but they don’t hear. They have noses, but they don’t smell.

⁶de har Ører, men hører ikke, Næse men lugter dog ej;

⁷They have hands, but they don’t feel. They have feet, but they don’t walk, neither do they speak through their throat.

⁷de har Hænder, men føler ikke, Fødder, men går dog ej, deres Strube frembringer ikke en Lyd.

⁸Those who make them will be like them; yes, everyone who trusts in them.

⁸Som dem skal de, der lavede dem, blive, enhver, som stoler på dem!

⁹Israel, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.

⁹Israel stoler på HERREN, han er deres Hjælp og Skjold;

¹⁰House of Aaron, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.

¹⁰Arons Hus stoler på HERREN, han er deres Hjælp og Skjold;

¹¹You who fear Yahweh, trust in Yahweh! He is their help and their shield.

¹¹de, som frygter HERREN, stoler på ham, han er deres Hjælp og Skjold.

¹²Yahweh remembers us. He will bless us. He will bless the house of Israel. He will bless the house of Aaron.

¹²HERREN kommer os i Hu, velsigner, velsigner Israels Hus, velsigner Arons Hus,

¹³He will bless those who fear Yahweh, both small and great.

¹³velsigner dem, der frygter HERREN, og det både små og store.

¹⁴May Yahweh increase you more and more, you and your children.

¹⁴HERREN lader eder vokse i Tal, eder og eders Børn;

¹⁵Blessed are you by Yahweh, who made heaven and earth.

¹⁵velsignet er I af HERREN, Himlens og Jordens Skaber.

¹⁶The heavens are the heavens of Yahweh; but the earth has he given to the children of men.

¹⁶Himlen er HERRENs Himmel, men Jorden gav han til Menneskens Børn.

¹⁷The dead don’t praise Yah, neither any who go down into silence;

¹⁷De døde priser ej HERREN, ingen af dem, der steg ned i det tavse.

¹⁸But we will bless Yah, from this time forth and forevermore. Praise Yah!

¹⁸Men vi, vi lover HERREN, fra nu og til evig Tid!
