Psalms 46
1 For the end, for the sons of Core; a Psalm concerning secret things. God is our refuge and strength, a help in the afflictions that have come heavily upon us.
Til sangmesteren; av Korahs barn; efter Alamot; en sang. Gud er vår tilflukt og vår styrke, en hjelp i trengsler, funnet såre stor.
2 Therefore will we not fear when the earth is troubled, and the mountains are removed into the depths of the seas.
Derfor frykter vi ikke, om jorden omskiftes, og om fjell rokkes i havets hjerte,
3 Their waters have roared and been troubled, the mountains have been troubled by his might. (Pause)
om dets bølger bruser og skummer, og fjell bever ved dets overmot. (Sela)
4 The flowings of the river gladden the city of God: the Most High has sanctified his tabernacle.
En strøm - dens bekker gleder Guds stad, den Høiestes hellige bolig.
5 God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved: God shall help her with his countenance.
Gud er midt i den, den skal ikke rokkes; Gud hjelper den når morgenen bryter frem.
6 The nations were troubled, the kingdoms tottered: he uttered his voice, the earth shook.
Folkeferd bruste, riker blev rokket; han lot sin røst høre, jorden smeltet.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper. (Pause)
Herren, hærskarenes Gud, er med oss; Jakobs Gud er vår faste borg. (Sela)
8 Come, and behold the works of the Lord, what wonders he has achieved on the earth.
Kom, se Herrens gjerninger, som har gjort ødeleggelse på jorden!
9 Putting an end to wars as for the ends of the earth; he will crush the bow, and break in pieces the weapon, and burn the bucklers with fire.
Han gjør ende på krigene over hele jorden, bryter buen sønder og hugger spydet av; vognene brenner han op med ild.
10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth.
Hold op og kjenn at jeg er Gud! Jeg er ophøiet iblandt folkene, ophøiet på jorden.
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our helper.
Herren, hærskarenes Gud, er med oss; Jakobs Gud er vår faste borg. (Sela)
