Salme 46
1 Til Sangmesteren; af Koras Børn; en Sang; til Alamoth.
To the chief Musician. Of the sons of Korah. On Alamoth. A song. God is our refuge and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found.
2 Gud er vor Tillid og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angester, prøvet til fulde.
Therefore will we not fear though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the heart of the seas;
3 Derfor ville vi ikke frygte, om end Jorden forandres, og Bjergene synke ned i Havets Dyb;
Though the waters thereof roar [and] foam, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. (Selah)
4 om end Vandene deri bruse og oprøres, Bjergene bæve for dets Vælde. (Sela)
There is a river the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the sanctuary of the habitations of the Most High.
5 Men en Strøm med sine Bække glæder Guds Stad, Helligdommen, den Højestes Boliger.
God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her at the dawn of the morning.
6 Gud er midt i den, den skal ikke rokkes; Gud skal hjælpe den, naar Morgenen frembryder.
The nations raged, the kingdoms were moved; he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 Hedningerne brusede, Rigerne bevægedes; han udgav sin Røst, Jorden smeltedes.
Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high fortress. (Selah)
8 Herren Zebaoth er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
Come, behold the works of Jehovah, what desolations he hath made in the earth:
9 Kommer, ser Herrens Gerninger, hvorledes han har anrettet Ødelæggelser paa Jorden.
He hath made wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; he burneth the chariots in the fire.
10 Han, som kommer Krigene til at holde op indtil Jordens Ende, sønderbryder Buen og afhugger Spydet, opbrænder Vognene med Ild.
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in 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)
Jehovah of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our high fortress. (Selah)
