Salme 6
1 Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; til Skeminith; en Psalme af David. O Herre! straf mig ikke i din Vrede og tugt mig ikke i din Harme!
Yahweh, do not punish me when you are angry [with me]; Do not even rebuke/scold me [when you are angry].
2 Herre! vær mig naadig, thi jeg er skrøbelig; læg mig, Herre! thi mine Ben skælve.
Yahweh, be kind to me and heal me because I have become weak. My body [SYN] shakes because I am experiencing much pain.
3 Og min Sjæl skælver saare: Men du, Herre! — hvor længe?
Yahweh, I am greatly distressed. How long ([must I endure this/will it be before you help me]) [RHQ]?
4 Vend om, Herre! fri min Sjæl, frels mig for din Miskundheds Skyld!
Yahweh, please come and rescue me. Save me because you faithfully love me.
I will not be able to praise you after I die [RHQ]; No one in the place of the dead praises you. (Sheol h7585)
6 Jeg er træt af mit Suk, jeg væder min Seng den ganske Nat; jeg gennembløder mit Leje med min Graad.
I am exhausted/groan [from my pain]. At night I cry very much, with the result that my bed and my pillow become wet from my tears.
7 Mit Øje er hentæret af Sorg; det er blevet gammelt for alle mine Fjenders Skyld.
My tears blur my eyes so much that I cannot see well. My eyes have become weak because my enemies [have caused me to cry constantly].
8 Viger fra mig, alle I, som gøre Uret! thi Herren har hørt min Graads Røst.
You people who do evil things, get away from me!
9 Herren har hørt min ydmyge Begæring, Herren vil antage min Bøn.
Yahweh heard me when I was crying and called out to him [to help me], and he will answer my prayer.
10 Alle mine Fjender skulle blive til Skamme og skælve saare; de skulle vige tilbage, de skulle blive til Skamme i et Øjeblik.
[When that happens], all my enemies will be ashamed, and they will [also] be terrified. They will get away [from me] and suddenly [leave me] because they will be disgraced.
