Salme 46
1 (Til sangmesteren. Af Koras sønner. Al-alamot. En sang.) Gud er vor Tilflugt og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angster, prøvet til fulde
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 Derfor frygter vi ikke, om Jorden end bølger og Bjergene styrter i Havenes Skød,
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 om end deres Vande bruser og syder og Bjergene skælver ved deres Vælde. (Sela)
They thundered, and the waters were stirred up among them; the mountains have been disturbed by his strength.
4 En Flod og dens Bække glæder Guds Stad, den Højeste har helliget sin Bolig;
The frenzy of the river rejoices the city of God. The Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
5 i den er Gud, den rokkes ikke, Gud bringer den Hjælp, når Morgen gryr.
God is in its midst; it will not be shaken. God will assist it in the early morning.
6 Folkene larmed, Rigerne vakled, han løfted Røsten, så Jorden skjalv,
The peoples have been disturbed, and the kingdoms have been bowed down. He uttered his voice: the earth has been moved.
7 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.
8 Kom hid og se på HERRENs Værk, han har udført frygtelige Ting på Jord.
Draw near and behold the works of the Lord: what portents he has set upon the earth,
9 Han gør Ende på Krig til Jordens Grænser, han splintrer Buen, sønderbryder Spydene, Skjoldene tænder han i Brand.
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 Hold inde og kend, at jeg er Gud, ophøjet blandt Folkene, ophøjet på Jorden!
Be empty, and see that I am God. I will be exalted among the peoples, and I will be exalted upon the earth.
11 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.
