Salme 52

1 (Til sangmesteren. En maskil af David, da edomitten Doeg kom og meldte Saul, at David var gået ind i Ahimeleks hus.) Du stærke, hvi bryster du dig af din Ondskab imod den fromme?

To the choirmaster a poem of David. When came - Doeg the Edomite and he told to Saul and he said to him he has gone David to [the] house of Ahimelech. Why? do you boast in evil O mighty [man] [the] covenant loyalty of God [is] all the day.

2 Du pønser hele Dagen på ondt; din Tunge er hvas som en Kniv, du Rænkesmed,

Destruction it plots tongue your like a razor sharpened O doer of deceit.

3 du foretrækker ondt for godt, Løgn for sanddru Tale. (Sela)

You love evil more than good falsehood - more than speaking righteousness (Selah)

4 Du elsker al ødelæggende Tale, du falske Tunge!

You love all words of swallowing a tongue of deceit.

5 Derfor styrte Gud dig for evigt, han gribe dig, rive dig ud af dit Telt, han rykke dig op af de levendes Land! (Sela)

Also God he will tear down you to perpetuity he will snatch up you and he will tear away you from a tent and he will root up you from [the] land of living [people] (Selah)

6 De retfærdige ser det, frygter og håner ham leende:

So they may see righteous [people] so they may fear and on him they will laugh.

7 "Se der den Mand, der ej gjorde Gud til sit Værn, men stoled på sin megen Rigdom, trodsede på sin Velstand!"

There! the man [who] not he made God refuge his and he trusted in [the] greatness of rich[es] his he was strong in destruction his.

8 Men jeg er som et frodigt Olietræ i Guds Hus, Guds Miskundhed stoler jeg evigt og altid på.

And I - [am] like an olive tree luxuriant in [the] house of God I trust in [the] covenant loyalty of God forever and ever.

9 Evindelig takker jeg dig, fordi du greb ind; jeg vidner iblandt dine fromme, at godt er dit Navn.

I will give thanks to you for ever for you have acted and I may wait for name your for [it is] good before faithful [people] your.
