Psalms 68
1 Unto the end, a psalm of a canticle for David himself. Let God arise, and let his enemies be scattered: and let them that hate him flee from before his face.
Til Sangmesteren, af David; en Psalme, en Sang.
2 As smoke vanisheth, so let them vanish away: as wax melteth before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the presence of God.
Gud staar op, hans Fjender adspredes, og de, som hade ham, fly for hans Ansigt.
3 And let the just feast, and rejoice before God: and be delighted with gladness.
Som Røg driver bort, vil du bortdrive dem; som Voks smelter for Ild, skulle de ugudelige omkomme for Guds Ansigt.
4 Sing ye to God, sing a psalm to his name, make a way for him who ascendeth upon the west: the Lord is his name. Rejoice ye before him: but the wicked shall be troubled at his presence,
Men de retfærdige skulle glædes, de skulle fryde sig for Guds Ansigt og juble med Glæde.
5 Who is the father of orphans, and the judge of widows. God in his holy place:
Synger for Gud, lovsynger hans Navn, baner Vej for ham, som farer frem igennem Ørkenen; Herren er hans Navn, og fryder eder for hans Ansigt.
6 God who maketh men of one manner to dwell in a house: Who bringeth out them that were bound in strength; in like manner them that provoke, that dwell in sepulchres.
Faderløses Fader og Enkers Dommer er Gud i sin hellige Bolig.
7 O God, when thou didst go forth in the sight of thy people, when thou didst pass through the desert:
Gud lader de enlige bo i Huse, han udfører de bundne i Frihed; kun de genstridige bo i det fortørrede Land.
8 The earth was moved, and the heavens dropped at the presence of the God of Sina, at the presence of the God of Israel.
Gud! da du drog ud foran dit Folk, da du skred frem gennem Ørkenen (Sela)
9 Thou shalt set aside for thy inheritance a free rain, O God: and it was weakened, but thou hast made it perfect.
Da bævede Jorden, og Himlene dryppede for Guds Ansigt, hint Sinaj! for Guds, Israels Guds Ansigt.
10 In it shall thy animals dwell; in thy sweetness, O God, thou hast provided for the poor.
En Regn af Gaver lod du strømme ned, o Gud! din Arv, som var træt, styrkede du.
11 The Lord shall give the word to them that preach good tidings with great power.
Din Hjord bosatte sig i Landet; du beredte det, Gud! for den elendige ved din Godhed.
12 The king of powers is of the beloved, of the beloved; and the beauty of the house shall divide spoils.
Herren lader. Ordet udgaa; de Kvinder, som bringe glad Budskab, ere en stor Hær.
13 If you sleep among the midst of lots, you shall be as the wings of a dove covered with silver, and the hinder parts of her back with the paleness of gold.
Hærskarernes Konger fly, de fly; og hun, som bor i Huset, uddeler Bytte.
14 When he that is in heaven appointeth kings over her, they shall be whited with snow in Selmon.
Naar I ligge mellem Foldene, er det som en Dues Vinger, skjulte med Sølv, og hvis Vingefjedre ere indsprængte med Guldets gyldengrønne Glans.
15 The mountain of God is a fat mountain. A curdled mountain, a fat mountain.
Naar den Almægtige spreder Konger derudi, da falder der Sne paa Zalmon.
16 Why suspect, ye curdled mountains? A mountain in which God is well pleased to dwell: for there the Lord shall dwell unto the end.
Et Guds Bjerg er Basans Bjerg, et Bjerg med mange Tinder er Basans Bjerg.
17 The chariot of God is attended by ten thousands; thousands of them that rejoice: the Lord is among them in Sina, in the holy place.
Hvorfor se I Bjerge med de mange Tinder med Avind til det Bjerg, som Gud havde Lyst at bo paa? ja, Herren vil bo derpaa evindelig.
18 Thou hast ascended on high, thou hast led captivity captive; thou hast received gifts in men. Yea for those also that do not believe, the dwelling of the Lord God.
Guds Vogne ere to Gange ti Tusinde, tusinde Gange tusinde; Herren er iblandt dem som paa Sinaj i Hellighed.
19 Blessed be the Lord day by day: the God of our salvation will make our journey prosperous to us.
Du opfor i Højheden, du bortførte Fanger, du annammede Gaver iblandt Mennesker, ja, endog iblandt de genstridige, at du maa blive boende, o Herre, o Gud!
20 Our God is the God of salvation: and of the Lord, of the Lord are the issues from death.
Lovet være Herren fra Dag til Dag! lægger han os en Byrde paa, saa er Gud dog vor Frelse. (Sela)
21 But God shall break the heads of his enemies: the hairy crown of them that walk on in their sins.
Vi have en Gud, som er en Gud til Frelse, og hos den Herre, Herre ere Udgange fra Døden.
22 The Lord said: I will turn them from Basan, I will turn them into the depth of the sea:
Men Gud skal knuse sine Fjenders Hoved, dens haarrige Isse, som vandrer frem i sin Skyld.
23 That thy foot may be dipped in the blood of thy enemies; the tongue of thy dogs be red with the same.
Herren sagde: Jeg vil føre dem tilbage fra Basan, jeg vil føre dem tilbage fra Havets Dybheder,
24 They have seen thy goings, O God, the goings of my God: of my king who is in his sanctuary.
paa det din Fod maa vade i Blod, og dine Hundes Tunge faa sin Del af Fjenderne.
25 Princes went before joined with singers, in the midst of young damsels playing on timbrels.
Gud! de saa dine Tog, min Guds, min Konges Tog i Hellighed.
26 In the churches bless ye God the Lord, from the fountains of Israel.
Foran gik Sangerne, bagefter de, som legede paa Strengeleg, midt imellem Pigerne, som sloge paa Tromme.
27 There is Benjamin a youth, in ecstasy of mind. The princes of Juda are their leaders: the princes of Zabulon, the princes of Nephthali.
Lover Gud i Forsamlingerne; lover Herren, I, som ere af Israels Kilde!
28 Command thy strength, O God: confirm, O God, what thou hast wrought in us.
Der er Benjamin, den lille, der herskede over dem, Judas Fyrster, som stenede dem, Sebulons Fyrster, Nafthalis Fyrster.
29 From thy temple in Jerusalem, kings shall offer presents to thee.
Din Gud har befalet dig at være stærk; styrk, o Gud! det, du har gjort os.
30 Rebuke the wild beasts of the reeds, the congregation of bulls with the kine of the people; who seek to exclude them who are tried with silver. Scatter thou the nations that delight in wars:
Fra dit Tempel i Jerusalem skulle Konger fremføre dig Gave.
31 Ambassadors shall come out of Egypt: Ethiopia shall soon stretch out her hands to God.
Skæld paa Dyret iblandt Rørene, de stærke Øksnes Hob med Folkekalvene, som nedkaste sig med Sølvstykker; han adspredte Folkene, som have Lyst til Strid.
32 Sing to God, ye kingdoms of the earth: sing ye to the Lord: Sing ye to God,
Fyrster skulle komme fra Ægypten; Morland skal hastelig udstrække sine Hænder til Gud.
33 Who mounteth above the heaven of heavens, to the east. Behold he will give to his voice the voice of power:
I Riger paa Jorden! synger for Gud, lovsynger Herren (Sela)
34 Give ye glory to God for Israel, his magnificence, and his power is in the clouds.
ham, som farer i Himlenes Himle, som ere fra fordums Tid, se, han udgiver sin Røst, den mægtige Røst.
35 God is wonderful in his saints: the God of Israel is he who will give power and strength to his people. Blessed be God.
Giver Gud Magten; hans Højhed er over Israel og hans Magt i Skyerne. Forfærdelig er du, o Gud! fra dine Helligdomme; Israels Gud, han giver Folket Kraft og Styrke; lovet være Gud!
