Salme 32
1 Salig er den, hvis Overtrædelse er forladt, hvis Synd er skjult.
Blessed are those whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
2 Saligt er det Menneske, hvem Herren ikke tilregner Skyld, og i hvis Aand der ikke er Svig.
Blessed is the man to whom Jehovah does not impute sin, and in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 Der jeg vilde tie, hentæredes mine Ben under min Jamren den ganske Dag.
When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all the day long.
4 Thi din Haand laa Dag og Nat svar paa mig; min Livskraft svandt hen i Sommerens Tørhed. (Sela)
For day and night thy hand was heavy upon me. My moisture was changed as with the drought of summer. (Selah)
5 Jeg bekendte min Synd for dig og skjulte ikke min Misgerning, jeg sagde: „Jeg vil bekende mine Overtrædelser for Herren‟, du forlod mig min Syndeskyld. (Sela)
I acknowledged my sin to thee, and I did not hide my iniquity. I said, I will confess my transgressions to Jehovah, and thou forgave the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
6 Derfor skal hver hellig bede til dig til den Stund, du findes; komme store Vandskyl, skulle de ikke naa til ham.
For this let everyone who is devout pray to thee in a time when thou may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow they shall not reach to him.
7 Du er mit Skjul, du bevarer mig for Angest; med Frelsens Jubel omgiver du mig. (Sela)
Thou are my hiding-place. Thou will preserve me from trouble. Thou will encompass me around with songs of deliverance. (Selah)
8 Jeg vil undervise dig og lære dig den Vej, som du skal gaa; jeg vil raade dig ved mit Øje.
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shall go. I will counsel thee with my eye upon thee.
9 Værer ikke som Hest og Mule, der ikke have Forstand, hvis Prydelse er Tømme og Bidsel til at tvinge dem, naar de ikke ville komme nær til dig.
Become ye not as the horse, or as the mule, which have no understanding, whose trappings must be bit and bridle to hold them in, else they will not come near to thee.
10 Den ugudelige har mange Smerter; men den, som forlader sig paa Herren, omgiver han med Miskundhed.
Many sorrows shall be to the wicked, but he who trusts in Jehovah, loving kindness shall encompass him about.
11 Glæder eder i Herren og fryder eder, I retfærdige! og synger med Fryd alle I, som ere oprigtige i Hjertet!
Be glad in Jehovah, and rejoice, ye righteous. And shout for joy, all ye who are upright in heart.
