< Salme 146 >
1 Halleluja! Pris HERREN, min Sjæl!
Praise YAH! Praise, O my soul, YHWH.
2 Jeg vil prise HERREN hele mit Liv, lovsynge min Gud, saa længe jeg lever.
I praise YHWH during my life, I sing praise to my God while I exist.
3 Sæt ikke eders Lid til Fyrster, til et Menneskebarn, der ikke kan hjælpe!
Do not trust in princes—in a son of man, For he has no deliverance.
4 Hans Aand gaar bort, han bliver til Jord igen, hans Raad er bristet samme Dag.
His spirit goes forth, he returns to his earth, In that day his thoughts have perished.
5 Salig den, hvis Hjælp er Jakobs Gud, hvis Haab staar til HERREN hans Gud,
O the blessedness of him Who has the God of Jacob for his help, His hope [is] on his God YHWH,
6 som skabte Himmel og Jord, Havet og alt, hvad de rummer, som evigt bevarer sin Trofasthed
Making the heavens and earth, The sea and all that [is] in them, Who is keeping truth for all time,
7 og skaffer de undertrykte Ret, som giver de sultne Brød! HERREN løser de fangne,
Doing judgment for the oppressed, Giving bread to the hungry.
8 HERREN aabner de blindes Øjne, HERREN rejser de bøjede, HERREN elsker de retfærdige,
YHWH is loosing the prisoners, YHWH is opening (the eyes of) the blind, YHWH is raising the bowed down, YHWH is loving the righteous,
9 HERREN vogter de fremmede, opholder faderløse og Enker, men gudløses Vej gør han kroget.
YHWH is preserving the strangers, He causes the fatherless and widow to stand, And He turns the way of the wicked upside down.
10 HERREN er Konge for evigt, din Gud, o Zion, fra Slægt til Slægt. Halleluja!
YHWH reigns for all time, Your God, O Zion, to generation and generation, Praise YAH!
