1 En salme av David. Gi til Herren, dere Guds sønner, gi Herren ære og styrke.

<A Psalm. Of David.> Give to the Lord, you sons of the gods, give to the Lord glory and strength.

2 Gi Herren hele hans navns herlighet; tilbe ham i hellige klær.

Give to the Lord the full glory of his name; give him worship in holy robes.

3 Herrens røst er over vannene; ærens Gud tordner, Herren er over de store vann.

The voice of the Lord is on the waters: the God of glory is thundering, the Lord is on the great waters.

4 Herrens røst er full av kraft; Herrens røst er mektig.

The voice of the Lord is full of power; the voice of the Lord has a noble sound.

5 Herrens røst bryter sedrene, selv Libanons sedrer brytes av Herren.

By the voice of the Lord are the cedar-trees broken, even the cedars of Lebanon are broken by the Lord.

6 Han får dem til å hoppe som en ung okse; Libanon og Sirjon som en ung villokse.

He makes them go jumping about like a young ox; Lebanon and Sirion like a young mountain ox.

7 Herrens røst slår med flammende ild.

At the voice of the Lord flames of fire are seen.

8 På Herrens røst skjelver ødemarken, selv ødemarken Kadesh skjelver.

At the voice of the Lord there is a shaking in the waste land, even a shaking in the waste land of Kadesh.

9 Ved Herrens røst føder hindene, løvet faller av trærne: i hans tempel roper alt: Ære.

At the voice of the Lord the roes give birth, the leaves are taken from the trees: in his Temple everything says, Glory.

10 Herren satt som konge da vannene kom; Herren sitter som konge for alltid.

The Lord had his seat as king when the waters came on the earth; the Lord is seated as king for ever.

11 Herren vil gi sitt folk styrke; Herren vil velsigne sitt folk med fred.

The Lord will give strength to his people; the Lord will give his people the blessing of peace.
