< Salme 46 >

1 Til Sangmesteren. Af Koras Sønner. Al-alamot. En Sang.
Unto the end. To the sons of Korah, for confidants. A Psalm. Our God is our refuge and strength, a helper in the tribulations that have greatly overwhelmed us.
2 Gud er vor Tilflugt og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angster, prøvet til fulde.
Because of this, we will not be afraid when the earth will be turbulent and the mountains will be transferred into the heart of the sea.
3 Derfor frygter vi ikke, om Jorden end bølger og Bjergene styrter i Havenes Skød,
They thundered, and the waters were stirred up among them; the mountains have been disturbed by his strength.
4 om end deres Vande bruser og syder og Bjergene skælver ved deres Vælde. (Sela)
The frenzy of the river rejoices 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 its midst; it will not be shaken. God will assist it in the early morning.
6 i den er Gud, den rokkes ikke, Gud bringer den Hjælp, naar Morgen gryr.
The peoples have been disturbed, and the kingdoms have been bowed down. He uttered his voice: the earth has been moved.
7 Folkene larmed, Rigerne vakled, han løfted Røsten, saa Jorden skjalv,
The Lord of hosts is with us. The God of Jacob is our supporter.
8 Hærskarers HERRE er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
Draw near and behold the works of the Lord: what portents he has set upon the earth,
9 Kom hid og se paa HERRENS Værk, han har udført frygtelige Ting paa Jord.
carrying away wars even to the end of the earth. He will crush the bow and break the weapons, and he will burn the shield with fire.
10 Han gør Ende paa Krig til Jordens Grænser, han splintrer Buen, sønderbryder Spydene, Skjoldene tænder han i Brand.
Be empty, and see that I am God. I will be exalted among the peoples, and I will be exalted upon 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 supporter.
