Salme 62
1 Til Sangmesteren; for Jeduthun; en Psalme af David.
Unto the end. For Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. Will my soul not be subject to God? For from him is my salvation.
2 Kun for Gud er min Sjæl stille, fra ham kommer min Frelse.
Yes, he himself is my God and my salvation. He is my supporter; I will be moved no more.
3 Kun han er min Klippe og min Frelse, min Befæstning; jeg skal ikke rokkes meget.
How is it that you rush against a man? Every one of you puts to death, as if you were pulling down a ruined wall, leaning over and falling apart.
4 Hvor længe storme I imod en Mand, alle tilsammen for at myrde ham, der er som en Væg, der hælder, som en Mur, der har faaet Stød?
So, truly, they intended to reject my price. I ran in thirst. They blessed with their mouth and cursed with their heart.
5 Kun om at nedstøde ham fra hans Højhed raadslaa de, de have Behag i Løgn; de velsigne med deres Mund, og de forbande i deres Inderste. (Sela)
Yet, truly, my soul will be subject to God. For from him is my patience.
6 Kun for Gud vær stille min Sjæl; thi af ham er min Forventning.
For he is my God and my Savior. He is my helper; I will not be expelled.
7 Kun han er min Klippe og min Frelse, min Befæstning; jeg skal ikke rokkes.
In God is my salvation and my glory. He is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.
8 Hos Gud er min Frelse og min Ære, min Styrkes Klippe, min Tilflugt er i Gud.
All peoples gathered together: trust in him. Pour out your hearts in his sight. God is our helper for eternity.
9 Forlader eder paa ham til hver Tid, I Folk! udøser eders Hjerte for hans Ansigt; Gud er vor Tilflugt. (Sela)
So, truly, the sons of men are untrustworthy. The sons of men are liars in the scales, so that, by emptiness, they may deceive among themselves.
10 Kun Forfængelighed ere Menneskens Børn, Falskhed ere Menneskene; lægges de i Vægtskaalen, stige de til Vejrs, de ere Forfængelighed til Hobe.
Do not trust in iniquity, and do not desire plunder. If riches flow toward you, do not be willing to set your heart on them.
11 Forlader eder ikke paa Vold og sætter ikke forfængeligt Haab til røvet Gods; falder Rigdom eder til, da sætter ikke Hjertet dertil!
God has spoken once. I have heard two things: that power belongs to God,
12 Een Gang har Gud talt, ja, to Gange, hvad jeg har hørt: At Styrke hører Gud til. Og dig, Herre! hører Miskundhed til; thi du skal betale hver efter hans Gerning.
and that mercy belongs to you, O Lord. For you will repay each one according to his works.
