< Salme 46 >

1 Til Sangmesteren. Af Koras Sønner. Al-alamot. En Sang.
For the Leader; a Psalm of the sons of Korah; upon Alamoth. A Song. God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.
2 Gud er vor Tilflugt og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angster, prøvet til fulde.
Therefore will we not fear, though the earth do change, and though the mountains be moved into the heart of the seas;
3 Derfor frygter vi ikke, om Jorden end bølger og Bjergene styrter i Havenes Skød,
Though the waters thereof roar and foam, though the mountains shake at the swelling thereof. (Selah)
4 om end deres Vande bruser og syder og Bjergene skælver ved deres Vælde. (Sela)
There is a river, the streams whereof make glad the city of God, the holiest dwelling-place of the Most High.
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, at the approach of morning.
6 i den er Gud, den rokkes ikke, Gud bringer den Hjælp, naar Morgen gryr.
Nations were in tumult, kingdoms were moved; He uttered His voice, the earth melted.
7 Folkene larmed, Rigerne vakled, han løfted Røsten, saa Jorden skjalv,
The LORD of hosts 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, behold the works of the LORD, who hath made desolations in the earth.
9 Kom hid og se paa HERRENS Værk, han har udført frygtelige Ting paa Jord.
He maketh wars to cease unto the end of the earth; He breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in sunder; He burneth the chariots in the fire.
10 Han gør Ende paa Krig til Jordens Grænser, han splintrer Buen, sønderbryder Spydene, Skjoldene tænder han i Brand.
'Let be, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among 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 high tower. (Selah)
