Psalms 46
1 To the chief music-maker. Of the sons of Korah; put to Alamoth. A Song. God is our harbour and our strength, a very present help in trouble.
Til songmeisteren; av Korahs born, etter Alamot; ein song. Gud er mi hyggja og vår styrke, fullvel røynd i trengslor.
2 For this cause we will have no fear, even though the earth is changed, and though the mountains are moved in the heart of the sea;
Difor ottast me ikkje, um so jordi vert umskift, og um fjelli ragar hjarta av storhavet,
3 Though its waters are sounding and troubled, and though the mountains are shaking with their violent motion. (Selah)
um havbårorne dyn og skumar, og fjelli skjelv for deira ofse. (Sela)
4 There is a river whose streams make glad the resting-place of God, the holy place of the tents of the Most High.
Der er ei å, hennar bekkjer gled Guds by, den heilage stad der den Høgste bur.
5 God has taken his place in her; she will not be moved: he will come to her help at the dawn of morning.
Gud er midt i honom, so han skal ikkje rugga; Gud hjelper honom i morgonlysingi.
6 The nations were angry, the kingdoms were moved; at the sound of his voice the earth became like wax.
Folkeslag rasa, rike vart rikka, han let si røyst ljoda, jordi bråna.
7 The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
Herren, allhers drott, er med oss; Jakobs Gud er vår faste borg. (Sela)
8 Come, see the works of the Lord, the destruction which he has made in the earth.
Kom og sjå Herrens storverk, som gjer øydeleggjingar på jordi.
9 He puts an end to wars over all the earth; by him the bow is broken, and the spear cut in two, and the carriage burned in the fire.
Han gjer ende på herferder yver all jordi, bryt bogen sund og høgg spjotet av; stridsvognerne brenner han upp i eld.
10 Be at peace in the knowledge that I am God: I will be lifted up among the nations, I will be honoured through all the earth.
«Haldt upp og kjenn at eg er Gud! Eg er upphøgd millom folki, upphøgd på jordi.»
11 The Lord of armies is with us; the God of Jacob is our high tower. (Selah)
Herren, allhers drott, er med oss; Jakobs Gud er vår faste borg. (Sela)
