< Salme 46 >
1 Til Sangmesteren; af Koras Børn; en Sang; til Alamoth.
Unto the end. To the sons of Korah, for confidants. A Psalm. Our God is our refuge and strength, a helper in the tribulations that have greatly overwhelmed us.
2 Gud er vor Tillid og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angester, prøvet til fulde.
Because of this, we will not be afraid when the earth will be turbulent and the mountains will be transferred into the heart of the sea.
3 Derfor ville vi ikke frygte, om end Jorden forandres, og Bjergene synke ned i Havets Dyb;
They thundered, and the waters were stirred up among them; the mountains have been disturbed by his strength.
4 om end Vandene deri bruse og oprøres, Bjergene bæve for dets Vælde. (Sela)
The frenzy of the river rejoices the city of God. The Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
5 Men en Strøm med sine Bække glæder Guds Stad, Helligdommen, den Højestes Boliger.
God is in its midst; it will not be shaken. God will assist it in the early morning.
6 Gud er midt i den, den skal ikke rokkes; Gud skal hjælpe den, naar Morgenen frembryder.
The peoples have been disturbed, and the kingdoms have been bowed down. He uttered his voice: the earth has been moved.
7 Hedningerne brusede, Rigerne bevægedes; han udgav sin Røst, Jorden smeltedes.
The Lord of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our supporter.
8 Herren Zebaoth er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
Draw near and behold the works of the Lord: what portents he has set upon the earth,
9 Kommer, ser Herrens Gerninger, hvorledes han har anrettet Ødelæggelser paa Jorden.
carrying away wars even to the end of the earth. He will crush the bow and break the weapons, and he will burn the shield with fire.
10 Han, som kommer Krigene til at holde op indtil Jordens Ende, sønderbryder Buen og afhugger Spydet, opbrænder Vognene med Ild.
Be empty, and see that I am God. I will be exalted among the peoples, and I will be exalted upon the earth.
11 Lader af og vider, at jeg er Gud, ophøjet iblandt Hedningerne, ophøjet paa Jorden. Herren Zebaoth er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
The Lord of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our supporter.
