Salme 45
1 Til Sangmesteren; til „Lillierne‟; af Koras Børn; en Undervisning; en Sang om Kærlighed.
For the end, for alternate [strains] by the sons of Core; for instruction, a Song concerning the beloved. My heart has uttered a good matter: I declare my works to the king: my tongue is the pen of a quick writer.
2 Mit Hjerte udgyder en god Tale; jeg siger: Mine Idrætter gælde Kongen; min Tunge er en Hurtigskrivers Pen.
You are more beautiful than the sons of men: grace has been shed forth on your lips: therefore God has blessed you for ever.
3 Du er meget dejligere end Menneskens Børn, Ynde er udgydt paa dine Læber, derfor velsignede Gud dig evindelig.
Gird your sword upon your thigh, O Mighty One, in your comeliness, and in your beauty;
4 Bind dit Sværd ved din Side, du vældige! i din Majestæt og din Herlighed;
and bend [your bow], and prosper, and reign, because of truth and meekness and righteousness; and your right hand shall guide you wonderfully.
5 og vær lykkelig i din Herlighed, far frem for Sandhed og Mildhed med Retfærdighed, og din højre Haand skal lære dig forfærdelige Ting.
Your weapons are sharpened, Mighty One, (the nations shall fall under you) [they are] in the heart of the king's enemies.
6 Dine Pile ere skærpede; Folkene skulle falde under dig, Kongens Fjenders Hjerte rammes.
Your throne, O God, is for ever and ever: the sceptre of your kingdom is a sceptre of righteousness.
7 Gud! din Trone bliver evindelig og altid, dit Riges Spir er Rettens Spir.
You have loved righteousness, and hated iniquity: therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your fellows.
8 Du elsker Retfærdighed og hader Ugudelighed; derfor har Gud, din Gud, salvet dig med Glædens Olie fremfor dine Medbrødre.
Myrrh, and stacte, and cassia [are exhaled] from your garments, [and] out of the ivory palaces,
9 Alle dine Klæder dufte af Myrra og Aloe og Kasia; du gaar ud af de Elfenbens Paladser fra dem, som have glædet dig.
with which kings' daughters have gladdened you for your honour: the queen stood by on your right hand, clothed in vesture wrought with gold, [and] arrayed in various colours.
10 Kongedøtre ere iblandt dine Herligheder; Dronningen staar ved din højre Haand i Guld fra Ofir.
Hear, O daughter, and see, and incline your ear; forget also your people, and your father's house.
11 Hør, Datter! og se til og bøj dit Øre og glem dit Folk og din Faders Hus!
Because the king has desired your beauty; for he is your Lord.
12 saa skal Kongen faa Lyst til din Skønhed; thi han er din Herre, og du skal tilbede ham.
And the daughter of Tyre shall adore him with gifts; the rich of the people of the land shall supplicate your favour.
13 Og Tyrus's Datter skal komme med Skænk og bede ydmygeligt for dit Ansigt: De rige iblandt Folket.
All her glory [is that] of the daughter of the king of Esebon, robed [as she is] in golden fringed garments,
14 Kongedatteren derinde er aldeles herlig, hendes Klæder ere af Gyldenstykke.
in embroidered [clothing]: virgins shall be brought to the king after her: her fellows shall be brought to you.
15 Hun føres frem for Kongen i stukne Klæder; Jomfruerne, hendes Veninder, gaa efter hende, de føres ind til dig.
They shall be brought with gladness and exultation: they shall be led into the king's temple.
16 De føres frem med Glæde og Fryd, de komme i Kongens Palads.
Instead of your fathers children are born to you: you shall make them princes over all the earth.
17 Dine Sønner skulle være i dine Fædres Sted, dem skal du sætte til Fyrster paa den hele Jord. Jeg vil lade dit Navn ihukommes iblandt alle Slægter; derfor skulle Folkene love dig evindelig og altid.
They shall make mention of your name from generation to generation: therefore shall the nations give thanks to you for ever, even for ever and ever.
