< Salme 92 >

1 (En Salme. En Sang for Sabbatsdagen.) Det er godt at takke HERREN, lovsynge dit navn, du højeste,
A Psalm. A song for the Sabbath day. It is good to praise the LORD, and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High,
2 ved Gry forkynde din Nåde, om Natten din Trofasthed
to proclaim Your loving devotion in the morning and Your faithfulness at night
3 til tistrenget Lyre, til Harpe, til Strengeleg på Citer!
with the ten-stringed harp and the melody of the lyre.
4 Thi ved dit Værk har du glædet mig, HERRE, jeg jubler over dine Hænders Gerning.
For You, O LORD, have made me glad by Your deeds; I sing for joy at the works of Your hands.
5 Hvor store er dine Gerninger, HERRE, dine Tanker såre dybe!
How great are Your works, O LORD, how deep are Your thoughts!
6 Tåben fatter det ikke, Dåren skønner ej sligt.
A senseless man does not know, and a fool does not understand,
7 Spirer de gudløse end som Græsset, blomstrer end alle Udådsmænd, er det kun for at lægges øde for stedse,
that though the wicked sprout like grass, and all evildoers flourish, they will be forever destroyed.
8 men du er ophøjet for evigt, HERRE.
But You, O LORD, are exalted forever!
9 Thi se, dine Fjender, HERRE, se, dine Fjender går under, alle Udådsmænd spredes!
For surely Your enemies, O LORD, surely Your enemies will perish; all evildoers will be scattered.
10 Du har løftet mit Horn som Vildoksens, kvæget mig med den friskeste Olie;
But You have exalted my horn like that of a wild ox; with fine oil I have been anointed.
11 det fryder mit Øje at se mine Fjender, mit Øre at høre mine Avindsmænd.
My eyes see the downfall of my enemies; my ears hear the wailing of my wicked foes.
12 De retfærdige grønnes som Palmen, vokser som Libanons Ceder;
The righteous will flourish like a palm tree, and grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
13 plantet i HERRENs Hus grønnes de i vor Guds Forgårde;
Planted in the house of the LORD, they will flourish in the courts of our God.
14 selv grånende bærer de Frugt, er friske og fulde af Saft
In old age they will still bear fruit; healthy and green they will remain,
15 for at vidne, at HERREN er retvis, min Klippe, hos hvem ingen Uret findes.
to proclaim, “The LORD is upright; He is my Rock, and in Him there is no unrighteousness.”
