Salme 46
1 Til Sangmesteren. Af Koras Sønner. Al-alamot. En Sang.
To the chief music-maker. Of the sons of Korah; put to Alamoth. A Song. God is our harbour and our strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Gud er vor Tilflugt og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angster, prøvet til fulde.
For this cause we will have no fear, even though the earth is changed, and though the mountains are moved in the heart of the sea;
3 Derfor frygter vi ikke, om Jorden end bølger og Bjergene styrter i Havenes Skød,
Though its waters are sounding and troubled, and though the mountains are shaking with their violent motion. (Selah)
4 om end deres Vande bruser og syder og Bjergene skælver ved deres Vælde. (Sela)
There is a river whose streams make glad the resting-place of God, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
5 En Flod og dens Bække glæder Guds Stad, den Højeste har helliget sin Bolig;
God has taken his place in her; she will not be moved: he will come to her help at the dawn of morning.
6 i den er Gud, den rokkes ikke, Gud bringer den Hjælp, naar Morgen gryr.
The nations were angry, the kingdoms were moved; at the sound of his voice the earth became like wax.
7 Folkene larmed, Rigerne vakled, han løfted Røsten, saa Jorden skjalv,
The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
8 Hærskarers HERRE er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
Come, see the works of the Lord, the destruction which he has made in the earth.
9 Kom hid og se paa HERRENS Værk, han har udført frygtelige Ting paa Jord.
He puts an end to wars over all the earth; by him the bow is broken, and the spear cut in two, and the carriage burned in the fire.
10 Han gør Ende paa Krig til Jordens Grænser, han splintrer Buen, sønderbryder Spydene, Skjoldene tænder han i Brand.
Be at peace in the knowledge that I am God: I will be lifted up among the nations, I will be honoured through all the earth.
11 Hold inde og kend, at jeg er Gud, ophøjet blandt Folkene, ophøjet paa Jorden! Hærskarers HERRE er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
