Psalms 5
1 For the end, a Psalm of David, concerning her that inherits. Listen to my words, O Lord, attend to my cry.
Til Sangmesteren; paa Nekiloth; en Psalme af David.
2 Attend to the voice of my supplication, my King, and my God: for to you, O Lord, will I pray.
Herre! vend dine Øren til mine Ord, agt paa min Tanke!
3 In the morning you shall hear my voice: in the morning will I wait upon you, and will look up.
Giv Agt paa mit Raabs Røst, min Konge og min Gud! thi til dig beder jeg.
4 For you are not a god that desires iniquity; neither shall the worker of wickedness dwell with you.
Herre! om Morgenen høre du min Røst! jeg vil fremstille mig om Morgenen for dig og vente.
5 Neither shall the transgressors continue in your sight: you hate, O Lord, all them that work iniquity.
Thi du er ikke en Gud, som har Lyst til Ugudelighed; den onde skal ikke bo hos dig.
6 You will destroy all that speak falsehood: the Lord abhors the bloody and deceitful man.
Daarer skulle ikke bestaa for dine Øjne! du hader alle dem, som gøre Uret.
7 But I will enter into your house in the multitude of your mercy: I will worship in your fear towards your holy temple.
Du lader dem, som tale Løgn, gaa til Grunde: Herren har Vederstyggelighed til en blodgerrig og falsk Mand.
8 Lead me, O Lord, in your righteousness because of mine enemies; make my way plain before your face.
Men jeg vil komme til dit Hus ved din store Miskundhed; jeg vil tilbede imod dit hellige Tempel i din Frygt.
9 For there is no truth in their mouth; their heart is vain; their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit.
Herre! led mig i din Retfærdighed for mine Fjenders Skyld; jævn din Vej for mit Ansigt!
10 Judge them, O God; let them fail of their counsels: cast them out according to the abundance of their ungodliness; for they have provoked you, O Lord.
Thi i deres Mund er intet bestandigt; deres Indre er Ondskab; deres Strube er en aaben Grav, de smigre med deres Tunge.
11 But let all that trust on you be glad in you: they shall exult for ever, and you shall dwell amongst them; and all that love your name shall rejoice in you.
Gud! døm dem skyldige, at de falde formedelst deres Anslag; nedstød dem for deres mange Overtrædelsers Skyld, thi de ere genstridige imod dig.
12 For you, Lord, shall bless the righteous: you have compassed us as with a shield of favour.
Men alle, som forlade sig paa dig, skulle glæde sig, de skulle fryde sig evindelig, og du skal skjule over dem; og de, som elske dit Navn, skulle fryde sig i dig. Thi du, Herre! velsigner en retfærdig, du dækker ham med Naade som med et Skjold.
