1 Herren er blitt konge, folkene bever, han som troner over kjeruber, jorden ryster.

2 Herren er stor i Sion, og ophøiet er han over alle folkene.

3 De skal prise ditt navn, det store og forferdelige; hellig er han.

4 Og i sin styrke elsker kongen rettferd; du har grunnfestet rettvishet, du har gjort rett og rettferdighet i Jakob.

5 Ophøi Herren vår Gud, og kast eder ned for hans føtters skammel! Hellig er han.

6 Moses og Aron var blandt hans prester, og Samuel blandt dem som påkalte hans navn; de ropte til Herren, og han svarte dem.

7 I en skystøtte talte han til dem; de holdt hans vidnesbyrd og den lov han gav dem.

8 Herre vår Gud, du svarte dem; du var dem en Gud som tilgav dem, men også en hevner over deres gjerninger.

9 Ophøi Herren vår Gud, og kast eder ned for hans hellige berg! For hellig er Herren vår Gud.

1 The Lord is King; let the peoples be in fear: his seat is on the winged ones; let the earth be moved.

2 The Lord is great in Zion; he is high over all the nations.

3 Let them give praise to your name, for it is great and to be feared; holy is he.

4 The king's power is used for righteousness; you give true decisions, judging rightly in the land of Jacob.

5 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping at his feet; holy is he.

6 Moses and Aaron among his priests, and Samuel among those who gave honour to his name; they made prayers to the Lord, and he gave answers to them.

7 His voice came to them from the pillar of cloud; they kept his witness, and the law which he gave them.

8 You gave them an answer, O Lord our God; you took away their sin, though you gave them punishment for their wrongdoing.

9 Give high honour to the Lord our God, worshipping with your faces turned to his holy hill; for the Lord our God is holy.
