< Psalms 30 >
1 A Canticle Psalm. In dedication to the house of David. I will extol you, Lord, for you have sustained me, and you have not allowed my enemies to delight over me.
En Salme. En Sang ved Husets Indvielse. Af David. HERRE, jeg ophøjer dig, thi du bjærgede mig, lod ej mine Fjender glæde sig over mig;
2 O Lord my God, I have cried out to you, and you have healed me.
HERRE min Gud, jeg raabte til dig, og du helbredte mig.
3 Lord, you led my soul away from Hell. You have saved me from those who descend into the pit. (Sheol )
Fra Dødsriget, HERRE, drog du min Sjæl, kaldte mig til Live af Gravens Dyb. (Sheol )
4 Sing a psalm to the Lord, you his saints, and confess with remembrance of his holiness.
Lovsyng HERREN, I hans fromme, pris hans hellige Navn!
5 For wrath is in his indignation, and life is in his will. Toward evening, weeping will linger, and toward morning, gladness.
Thi et Øjeblik varer hans Vrede, Livet igennem hans Naade; om Aftenen gæster os Graad, om Morgenen Frydesang.
6 But I have said in my abundance: “I will never be disturbed.”
Jeg tænkte i min Tryghed: »Jeg rokkes aldrig i Evighed!«
7 O Lord, in your will, you made virtue preferable to beauty for me. You turned your face away from me, and I became disturbed.
HERRE, i Naade havde du fæstnet mit Bjerg; du skjulte dit Aasyn, jeg blev forfærdet.
8 To you, Lord, I will cry out. And I will make supplication to my God.
Jeg raabte, HERRE, til dig, og tryglende bad jeg til HERREN:
9 What use would there be in my blood, if I descend into corruption? Will dust confess to you or announce your truth?
»Hvad Vinding har du af mit Blod, af at jeg synker i Graven? Kan Støv mon takke dig, raabe din Trofasthed ud?
10 The Lord has heard, and he has been merciful to me. The Lord has become my helper.
HERRE, hør og vær naadig, HERRE, kom mig til Hjælp!«
11 You have turned my mourning into gladness for me. You have cut off my sackcloth, and you have surrounded me with joy.
Du vendte min Sorg til Dans, løste min Sørgedragt, hylled mig i Glæde,
12 So then, may my glory sing to you, and may I not regret it. O Lord, my God, I will confess to you for eternity.
at min Ære skal prise dig uden Ophør. HERRE min Gud, jeg vil takke dig evigt!
