Salme 46
1 Til Sangmesteren. Af Koras Sønner. Al-alamot. En Sang.
For the end, for the sons of Core; a Psalm concerning secret things. God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.
2 Gud er vor Tilflugt og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angster, prøvet til fulde.
Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.
3 Derfor frygter vi ikke, om Jorden end bølger og Bjergene styrter i Havenes Skød,
Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by his might. (Pause)
4 om end deres Vande bruser og syder og Bjergene skælver ved deres Vælde. (Sela)
The flowings of the river gladden the city of God: the Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
5 En Flod og dens Bække glæder Guds Stad, den Højeste har helliget sin Bolig;
God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her with his countenance.
6 i den er Gud, den rokkes ikke, Gud bringer den Hjælp, naar Morgen gryr.
The nations were troubled, the kingdoms tottered: he uttered his voice, the earth shook.
7 Folkene larmed, Rigerne vakled, han løfted Røsten, saa Jorden skjalv,
The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper. (Pause)
8 Hærskarers HERRE er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
Come, and behold the works of the Lord, what wonders he has achieved on the earth.
9 Kom hid og se paa HERRENS Værk, han har udført frygtelige Ting paa Jord.
Putting an end to wars as for the ends of the earth; he will crush the bow, and break in pieces the weapon, and burn the bucklers with fire.
10 Han gør Ende paa Krig til Jordens Grænser, han splintrer Buen, sønderbryder Spydene, Skjoldene tænder han i Brand.
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted amongst the nations, I will be exalted in 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 hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper.
