Salme 64
1 (Til sangmesteren. En salme af David.) Hør, o Gud, min røst, når jeg klager, skærm mit Liv mod den rædsomme Fjende;
God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.
2 skjul mig for Ugerningsmændenes Råd, for Udådsmændenes travle Hob.
Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.
3 der hvæsser Tungen som Sværd, lægger giftige Ord på Buen
The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.
4 for i Løn at ramme den skyldfri, ramme ham brat og uset.
Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].
5 Ihærdigt lægger de onde Råd, skryder af, at de lægger Snarer siger: "Hvem skulde se os?"
They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,
6 De udtænker onde Gerninger, fuldfører en gennemtænkt Tanke - og Menneskets Indre og Hjerte er dybt.
because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!
7 Da rammer Gud dem med en Pil af Slaget rammes de brat;
But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.
8 han styrter dem for deres Tunges Skyld. Enhver, som ser dem, ryster på Hovedet;
Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].
9 alle Mennesker frygter, forkynder, hvad Gud har gjort, og fatter hans Hænders Geming;
And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.
10 de retfærdige glædes i HERREN og lider på ham, de oprigtige af Hjertet jubler til Hobe!
Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.
