< Salme 146 >
Praise ye the Lord. Praise thou the Lord, O my soule.
2 Jeg vil love Herren, medens jeg lever, jeg vil synge min Gud Psalmer, medens jeg er til.
I will prayse the Lord during my life: as long as I haue any being, I wil sing vnto my God.
3 Forlader eder ikke paa Fyrster, paa et Menneskes Barn, hos hvem der ingen Frelse er.
Put not your trust in princes, nor in the sonne of man, for there is none helpe in him.
4 Hans Aand udfarer, han vender tilbage til sit Støv; paa den Dag er det forbi med hans stolte Anslag.
His breath departeth, and he returneth to his earth: then his thoughtes perish.
5 Salig er den, hvis Hjælp Jakobs Gud er, hvis Haab er til Herren hans Gud;
Blessed is he, that hath the God of Iaakob for his helpe, whose hope is in the Lord his God.
6 som gjorde Himmelen og Jorden, Havet og alt det, som der er i dem, han, som bliver Sandhed tro evindelig;
Which made heauen and earth, the sea, and all that therein is: which keepeth his fidelitie for euer:
7 som skaffer dem Ret, der lide Vold, som giver de hungrige Brød; Herren løser de bundne.
Which executeth iustice for the oppressed: which giueth bread to the hungry: the Lord loseth the prisoners.
8 Herren aabner de blindes Øjne; Herren oprejser de nedbøjede; Herren elsker de retfærdige.
The Lord giueth sight to the blinde: the Lord rayseth vp the crooked: the Lord loueth the righteous.
9 Herren bevarer de fremmede; han opholder faderløse og Enker, men forvender de ugudeliges Vej.
The Lord keepeth the strangers: he relieueth the fatherlesse and widowe: but he ouerthroweth the way of the wicked.
10 Herren skal regere evindelig, din Gud, o Zion! fra Slægt til Slægt. Halleluja!
The Lord shall reigne for euer: O Zion, thy God endureth from generation to generation. Prayse ye the Lord.
