Psalms 32
1 Of David. A Maskil. Blessed is he whose transgressions are forgiven, whose sins are covered.
Af David. En Maskil. Salig den, hvis Overtrædelse er forladt, hvis Synd er skjult;
2 Blessed is the man whose iniquity the LORD does not count against him, in whose spirit there is no deceit.
saligt det Menneske, HERREN ej tilregner Skyld, og i hvis Aand der ikke er Svig.
3 When I kept silent, my bones became brittle from my groaning all day long.
Mine Ben svandt hen, saa længe jeg tav, under Jamren Dagen igennem,
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me; my strength was drained as in the summer heat.
thi din Haand laa tungt paa mig baade Dag og Nat, min Livskraft svandt som i Somrens Tørke. (Sela)
5 Then I acknowledged my sin to You and did not hide my iniquity. I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,” and You forgave the guilt of my sin.
Min Synd bekendte jeg for dig, dulgte ikke min Skyld; jeg sagde: »Mine Overtrædelser vil jeg bekende for HERREN!« Da tilgav du mig min Syndeskyld. (Sela)
6 Therefore let all the godly pray to You while You may be found. Surely when great waters rise, they will not come near.
Derfor bede hver from til dig, den Stund du findes. Kommer da store Vandskyl, ham skal de ikke naa.
7 You are my hiding place. You protect me from trouble; You surround me with songs of deliverance.
Du er mit Skjul, du frier mig af Trængsel, med Frelsesjubel omgiver du mig. (Sela)
8 I will instruct you and teach you the way you should go; I will give you counsel and watch over you.
Jeg vil lære dig og vise dig, hvor du skal gaa, jeg vil raade dig ved at fæste mit Øje paa dig.
9 Do not be like the horse or mule, which have no understanding; they must be controlled with bit and bridle to make them come to you.
Vær ikke uden Forstand som Hest eller Muldyr, der tvinges med Tømme og Bidsel, naar de ikke vil komme til dig.
10 Many are the sorrows of the wicked, but loving devotion surrounds him who trusts in the LORD.
Den gudløses Smerter er mange, men den, der stoler paa HERREN, omgiver han med Naade.
11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, O righteous ones; shout for joy, all you upright in heart.
Glæd jer i HERREN, I retfærdige, fryd jer, jubler, alle I oprigtige af Hjertet!
