Salme 32
1 Af David. En Maskil. Salig den, hvis Overtrædelse er forladt, hvis Synd er skjult;
[By David. A contemplative psalm.] Happy are those whose transgression is forgiven, whose sin is covered.
2 saligt det Menneske, HERREN ej tilregner Skyld, og i hvis Aand der ikke er Svig.
Happy is the one to whom YHWH does not charge with sin, in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 Mine Ben svandt hen, saa længe jeg tav, under Jamren Dagen igennem,
When I kept silence, my bones wasted away through my groaning all day long.
4 thi din Haand laa tungt paa mig baade Dag og Nat, min Livskraft svandt som i Somrens Tørke. (Sela)
For day and night your hand was heavy on me to my destruction in the heat of summer. (Selah)
5 Min Synd bekendte jeg for dig, dulgte ikke min Skyld; jeg sagde: »Mine Overtrædelser vil jeg bekende for HERREN!« Da tilgav du mig min Syndeskyld. (Sela)
I acknowledged my sin to you. I did not hide my iniquity. I said, "I will confess my transgressions to YHWH," and you forgave the iniquity of my sin. (Selah)
6 Derfor bede hver from til dig, den Stund du findes. Kommer da store Vandskyl, ham skal de ikke naa.
For this, let everyone who is faithful pray to you in a time when you may be found. Surely when the great waters overflow, they shall not reach to him.
7 Du er mit Skjul, du frier mig af Trængsel, med Frelsesjubel omgiver du mig. (Sela)
You are my hiding place. You will preserve me from trouble. You will surround me with songs of deliverance. (Selah)
8 Jeg vil lære dig og vise dig, hvor du skal gaa, jeg vil raade dig ved at fæste mit Øje paa dig.
I will instruct you and teach you in the way which you shall go. I will counsel you with my eye on you.
9 Vær ikke uden Forstand som Hest eller Muldyr, der tvinges med Tømme og Bidsel, naar de ikke vil komme til dig.
Do not be like the horse, or like the mule, which have no understanding, who are controlled by bit and bridle, or else they will not come near to you.
10 Den gudløses Smerter er mange, men den, der stoler paa HERREN, omgiver han med Naade.
Many sorrows come to the wicked, but loving kindness shall surround him who trusts in YHWH.
11 Glæd jer i HERREN, I retfærdige, fryd jer, jubler, alle I oprigtige af Hjertet!
Be glad in YHWH, and rejoice, you righteous. Shout for joy, all you who are upright in heart.
