< Salme 65 >

1 (Til sangmesteren. En salme af David. En sang.) Lovsang tilkommer dig på Zion, o Gud, dig indfrier man Løfter, du, som hører Bønner;
[For the Chief Musician. A Psalm by David. A song.] Praise awaits you, God, in Zion. And to you shall vows be performed.
2 alt Kød kommer til dig, når Brøden tynger.
You who hear prayer, to you all men will come.
3 Vore Overtrædelser blev os for svare, du tilgiver dem.
Sins overwhelmed me, but you atoned for our transgressions.
4 Salig den, du udvælger, lader bo i dine Forgårde! Vi mættes af dit Huses Rigdom, dit Tempels Hellighed.
Blessed is the one you choose and bring near, that he may dwell in your courts. We will be filled with the goodness of your house, your holy temple.
5 Du svarer os underfuldt i Retfærd, vor Frelses Gud, du Tilflugt for den vide Jord, for fjerne Strande,
By awesome deeds of righteousness, you answer us, God of our salvation. You who are the hope of every part of the earth, of those who are far away on the sea;
6 du, som grundfæster Bjerge med Vælde, omgjorde med Kraft,
Who by his power forms the mountains, having armed yourself with strength;
7 du, som dæmper Havenes Brusen, deres Bølgers Brusen og Folkefærds Larm,
who stills the roaring of the seas, the roaring of their waves, and the turmoil of the nations.
8 så Folk ved Verdens Ende gruer for dine Tegn; hvor Morgen og Aften oprinder, bringer du Jubel.
They also who dwell in faraway places are afraid at your wonders. You call the morning's dawn and the evening with songs of joy.
9 Du så til Landet, vanded det, gjorde det såre rigt, Guds Bæk er fuld af Vand, du bereder dets Korn,
You visit the earth, and water it. You greatly enrich it. The river of God is full of water. You provide them grain, for so you have ordained it.
10 du vander dets Furer, jævner knoldene, bløder det med Regn, velsigner dets Sæd.
You drench its furrows. You level its ridges. You soften it with showers. You bless it with a crop.
11 Med din Herlighed kroner du Året, dine Vognspor flyder af Fedme;
You crown the year with your bounty. Your carts overflow with abundance.
12 de øde Græsgange flyder, med Jubel omgjordes Højene;
The wilderness grasslands overflow. The hills are clothed with gladness.
13 Engene klædes med Får, Dalene hylles i Korn, i Jubel bryder de ud og synger!
The pastures are covered with flocks. The valleys also are clothed with grain. They shout for joy. They also sing.
