< Psalms 92 >
1 It is a good thing to give thanks to Jehovah, and to sing praises to thy name, O Most High,
(En Salme. En Sang for Sabbatsdagen.) Det er godt at takke HERREN, lovsynge dit navn, du højeste,
2 to show forth thy loving kindness in the morning, and thy faithfulness every night,
ved Gry forkynde din Nåde, om Natten din Trofasthed
3 with an instrument of ten strings, and with the psaltery, with a solemn sound upon the harp.
til tistrenget Lyre, til Harpe, til Strengeleg på Citer!
4 For thou, Jehovah, have made me glad through thy work. I will triumph in the works of thy hands.
Thi ved dit Værk har du glædet mig, HERRE, jeg jubler over dine Hænders Gerning.
5 How great are thy works, O Jehovah! Thy thoughts are very deep.
Hvor store er dine Gerninger, HERRE, dine Tanker såre dybe!
6 A brutish man knows not, nor does a fool understand this.
Tåben fatter det ikke, Dåren skønner ej sligt.
7 When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity flourish, it is that they shall be destroyed forever,
Spirer de gudløse end som Græsset, blomstrer end alle Udådsmænd, er det kun for at lægges øde for stedse,
8 but thou, O Jehovah, are on high for evermore.
men du er ophøjet for evigt, HERRE.
9 For, lo, thine enemies, O Jehovah, for, lo, thine enemies shall perish. All the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.
Thi se, dine Fjender, HERRE, se, dine Fjender går under, alle Udådsmænd spredes!
10 But thou have exalted my horn like the wild ox's. I am anointed with fresh oil,
Du har løftet mit Horn som Vildoksens, kvæget mig med den friskeste Olie;
11 and my eye has seen my enemies. My ears have heard of the evildoers who rise up against me.
det fryder mit Øje at se mine Fjender, mit Øre at høre mine Avindsmænd.
12 A righteous man shall flourish like the palm tree. He shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
De retfærdige grønnes som Palmen, vokser som Libanons Ceder;
13 Men who are planted in the house of Jehovah shall flourish in the courts of our God.
plantet i HERRENs Hus grønnes de i vor Guds Forgårde;
14 They shall still bring forth fruit in old age. They shall be full of sap and green
selv grånende bærer de Frugt, er friske og fulde af Saft
15 to show that Jehovah is upright. He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
for at vidne, at HERREN er retvis, min Klippe, hos hvem ingen Uret findes.
