< Psalms 92 >
1 A Canticle Psalm. On the day of the Sabbath. It is good to confess to the Lord and to sing psalms to your name, O Most High:
En Psalme, en Sang paa Sabbatens Dag.
2 to announce your mercy in the morning, and your truth throughout the night,
Det er godt at takke Herren og at lovsynge dit Navn, du Højeste!
3 upon the ten strings, upon the psaltery, with a canticle, upon stringed instruments.
at kundgøre din Miskundhed om Morgenen og din Sandhed om Natten
4 For you, O Lord, have delighted me with your doings, and I will exult in the works of your hands.
paa de ti Strenge og paa Psalteren til Harpens Klang.
5 How great are your works, O Lord! Your thoughts have been made exceedingly deep.
Thi, Herre! du har glædet mig ved dit Værk; jeg vil synge med Fryd om dine Hænders Gerninger.
6 A foolish man will not know these things, and a senseless one will not understand:
Herre! hvor store ere dine Gerninger, dine Tanker ere meget dybe.
7 when sinners will have risen up like grass, and when all those who work iniquity will have appeared, that they shall pass away, age after age.
En ufornuftig Mand kender det ikke, og en Daare forstaar ikke dette.
8 But you, O Lord, are the Most High for all eternity.
Naar de ugudelige grønnes som en Urt, og alle de, som gøre Uret, blomstre, er det til deres Ødelæggelse stedse og altid.
9 For behold your enemies, O Lord, for behold your enemies will perish, and all those who work iniquity will be dispersed.
Men du, Herre, er høj evindelig.
10 And my horn will be exalted like that of the single-horned beast, and my old age will be exalted in fruitful mercy.
Thi se, dine Fjender, Herre! thi se, dine Fjender skulle omkomme, alle de, som gøre Uret, skulle adspredes.
11 And my eye has looked down upon my enemies, and my ear will hear of the malignant rising up against me.
Men du ophøjede mit Horn som Enhjørningens; jeg er overgydt med frisk Olie.
12 The just one will flourish like the palm tree. He will be multiplied like the cedar of Lebanon.
Og mit Øje saa paa mine Fjender, mine Øren hørte paa de onde, som opstode imod mig.
13 Those planted in the house of the Lord will flourish in the courts of the house of our God.
Den retfærdige skal grønnes som et Palmetræ, han skal vokse som et Cedertræ paa Libanon.
14 They will still be multiplied in a fruitful old age, and they will endure well,
De, som ere plantede i Herrens Hus, de skulle grønnes i vor Guds Forgaarde.
15 so that they may announce that the Lord our God is righteous and that there is no iniquity in him.
De skulle endnu bære Frugt, naar de ere graahærdede, de skulle være saftige og grønne til at forkynde, at Herren er oprigtig, min Klippe, og at der ikke er Uret hos ham.
