Salme 76
1 Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Psalme af Asaf, en Sang.
In Judah God is known. His name is great in Israel.
2 Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
In Salem also is his tabernacle, and his dwelling-place in Zion.
3 og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
There he broke the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
4 Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
Thou are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.
5 Du straaler i Glans og Herlighed fra de paa Bytte rige Bjerge.
The stouthearted are made a spoil. They have slept their sleep, and none of the men of might have found their hands.
6 De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.
7 For din Trusel, Jakobs Gud! er baade Hest og Vogn falden i den dybe Søvn.
Thou, even thou, are to be feared. And who may stand in thy sight when once thou are angry?
8 Du, ja, du er forfærdelig, og hvo kan bestaa for dit Ansigt, saa snart som du bliver vred?
Thou caused sentence to be heard from heaven. The earth feared and was still
9 Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
when God arose to judgment, to save all the meek of the earth. (Selah)
10 da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
Surely the inward thought of man shall praise thee, even the residue of inward thought will observe a festival to thee.
11 Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
Vow, and pay to Jehovah your God. Let all who are round about him bring presents to him who ought to be feared.
12 Gører Løfte og betaler Herren, eders Gud det; alle I, som ere omkring ham, skulle bringe ham, den forfærdelige, Gave. Han borttager Fyrsternes Mod, han er forfærdelig for Kongerne paa Jorden.
He will cut off the spirit of rulers. He is fearful to the kings of the earth.
