Psalms 132
1 A song of ascents. O LORD, remember on behalf of David all the hardships he endured,
Sang til Festrejserne. HERRE, kom David i Hu for al hans Møje,
2 how he swore an oath to the LORD, and vowed to the Mighty One of Jacob:
hvorledes han tilsvor HERREN, gav Jakobs Vældige et Løfte:
3 “I will not enter my house or get into my bed,
»Jeg træder ej ind i mit Huses Telt, jeg stiger ej op paa mit Leje,
4 I will not give sleep to my eyes or slumber to my eyelids,
under ikke mine Øjne Søvn, ikke mine Øjenlaag Hvile,
5 until I find a place for the LORD, a dwelling for the Mighty One of Jacob.”
før jeg har fundet HERREN et Sted, Jakobs Vældige en Bolig!«
6 We heard that the ark was in Ephrathah; we found it in the fields of Jaar.
»Se, i Efrata hørte vi om den, fandt den paa Ja'ars Mark;
7 Let us go to His dwelling place; let us worship at His footstool.
lad os gaa hen til hans Bolig, tilbede ved hans Fødders Skammel!«
8 Arise, O LORD, to Your resting place, You and the ark of Your strength.
»HERRE, bryd op til dit Hvilested, du og din Vældes Ark!
9 May Your priests be clothed with righteousness, and Your saints shout for joy.
Dine Præster være klædte i Retfærd, dine fromme synge med Fryd!
10 For the sake of Your servant David, do not reject Your anointed one.
For din Tjener Davids Skyld afvise du ikke din Salvede!«
11 The LORD swore an oath to David, a promise He will not revoke: “One of your descendants I will place on your throne.
HERREN tilsvor David et troværdigt, usvigeligt Løfte: »Af din Livsens Frugt vil jeg sætte Konger paa din Trone.
12 If your sons keep My covenant and the testimony I will teach them, then their sons will also sit on your throne forever and ever.”
Saafremt dine Sønner holder min Pagt og mit Vidnesbyrd, som jeg lærer dem, skal ogsaa deres Sønner sidde evindelig paa din Trone!
13 For the LORD has chosen Zion; He has desired it for His home:
Thi HERREN har udvalgt Zion, ønsket sig det til Bolig:
14 “This is My resting place forever and ever; here I will dwell, for I have desired this home.
Her er for evigt mit Hvilested, her vil jeg bo, thi det har jeg ønsket.
15 I will bless her with abundant provisions; I will satisfy her poor with bread.
Dets Føde velsigner jeg, dets fattige mætter jeg med Brød,
16 I will clothe her priests with salvation, and her saints will sing out in joy.
dets Præster klæder jeg i Frelse, dets fromme skal synge med Fryd.
17 There I will make a horn grow for David; I have prepared a lamp for My anointed one.
Der lader jeg Horn vokse frem for David, sikrer min Salvede Lampe.
18 I will clothe his enemies with shame, but the crown upon him will gleam.”
Jeg klæder hans Fjender i Skam, men paa ham skal Kronen straale!«
