Salme 76
1 Til Sangmesteren. Med Strengespil. En Salme af Asaf. En Sang.
In Judah [Praised], God is known. His name is great in Israel [God prevails].
2 Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
His tabernacle is also in Salem [Complete peace, Perfect peace]; His dwelling place in Zion [Mountain ridge, Marking].
3 i Salem er hans Hytte, hans Bolig er paa Zion.
There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
4 Der brød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krigsværn. (Sela)
Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.
5 Frygtelig var du, herlig paa de evige Bjerge.
Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.
6 De tapre gjordes til Bytte, i Dvale sank de, og Kraften svigted alle de stærke Kæmper.
At your rebuke, God of Jacob [Supplanter], both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.
7 Jakobs Gud, da du trued, faldt Vogn og Hest i den dybe Søvn.
You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
8 Frygtelig er du! Hvo holder Stand mod dig i din Vredes Vælde?
You pronounced judgment to be sh'ma ·heard obeyed· from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,
9 Fra Himlen fældte du Dom, Jorden grued og tav,
when God arose to judgment, to save all the afflicted ones of the earth. (Selah) ·contemplation with musical interlude·.
10 da Gud stod op til Dom for at frelse hver ydmyg paa Jord. (Sela)
Surely the wrath of man yadah ·extend hands in thankful praise· to you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.
11 Thi Folkestammer skal takke dig, de sidste af Stammerne fejre dig.
Make vows to Adonai your God, and fulfill them! Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.
12 Aflæg Løfter og indfri dem for HERREN eders Gud, alle omkring ham skal bringe den Frygtindgydende Gaver. Han kuer Fyrsternes Mod, indgyder Jordens Konger Frygt.
He will cut off the spirit of princes. He is feared by the kings of the earth.
