< Salme 46 >

1 Til Sangmesteren; af Koras Børn; en Sang; til Alamoth.
To the chief Musician for the sons of Korah, A Song upon Alamoth. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Gud er vor Tillid og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angester, prøvet til fulde.
Therefore will we not fear, though the earth shall be removed, and though the mountains shall be carried into the midst of the sea;
3 Derfor ville vi ikke frygte, om end Jorden forandres, og Bjergene synke ned i Havets Dyb;
Though its waters shall roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with its swelling. (Selah)
4 om end Vandene deri bruse og oprøres, Bjergene bæve for dets Vælde. (Sela)
There is a river, the streams of which shall make glad the city of God, the holy place of the tabernacles 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, and that right early.
6 Gud er midt i den, den skal ikke rokkes; Gud skal hjælpe den, naar Morgenen frembryder.
The heathen raged, the kingdoms were moved: he uttered his voice, the earth melted.
7 Hedningerne brusede, Rigerne bevægedes; han udgav sin Røst, Jorden smeltedes.
The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
8 Herren Zebaoth er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
Come, behold the works of the LORD, what desolations he hath made in the earth.
9 Kommer, ser Herrens Gerninger, hvorledes han har anrettet Ødelæggelser paa Jorden.
He maketh wars to cease to the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear asunder; he burneth the chariot 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 heathen, 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)
The LORD of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge. (Selah)
