< Salme 76 >
1 Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Psalme af Asaf, en Sang.
Unto the end. With Praises. A Psalm of Asaph. A Canticle to the Assyrians. In Judea, God is known. In Israel, his name is great.
2 Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
And his place has been formed with peace. And his dwelling place is in Zion.
3 og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
In that place, he has broken the powers of the bows, the shield, the sword, and the battle.
4 Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
You illuminate wondrously from the mountains of eternity.
5 Du straaler i Glans og Herlighed fra de paa Bytte rige Bjerge.
All the foolish of heart have been disturbed. They have slept their sleep, and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands.
6 De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, those who were mounted on horseback have fallen asleep.
7 For din Trusel, Jakobs Gud! er baade Hest og Vogn falden i den dybe Søvn.
You are terrible, and so, who can withstand you? From thence is your wrath.
8 Du, ja, du er forfærdelig, og hvo kan bestaa for dit Ansigt, saa snart som du bliver vred?
You have caused judgment to be heard from heaven. The earth trembled and was quieted,
9 Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
when God rose up in judgment in order to bring salvation to all the meek of the earth.
10 da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
For the thinking of man will confess to you, and the legacy of his thinking will keep a feast day to you.
11 Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
Make vows and pay them to the Lord, your God. All you who surround him bring gifts: to him who is terrible,
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.
even to him who takes away the spirit of leaders, to him who is terrible with the kings of the earth.
