< Psalms 76 >
1 For the Leader; with string-music. A Psalm of Asaph, a Song. In Judah is God known; His name is great in Israel.
Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Psalme af Asaf, en Sang.
2 In Salem also is set His tabernacle, and His dwelling-place in Zion.
Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
3 There He broke the fiery shafts of the bow; the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
4 Glorious art Thou and excellent, coming down from the mountains of prey.
Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
5 The stout-hearted are bereft of sense, they sleep their sleep; and none of the men of might have found their hands.
Du straaler i Glans og Herlighed fra de paa Bytte rige Bjerge.
6 At Thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they are cast into a dead sleep, the riders also and the horses.
De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
7 Thou, even Thou, art terrible; and who may stand in Thy sight when once Thou art angry?
For din Trusel, Jakobs Gud! er baade Hest og Vogn falden i den dybe Søvn.
8 Thou didst cause sentence to be heard from heaven; the earth feared, and was still,
Du, ja, du er forfærdelig, og hvo kan bestaa for dit Ansigt, saa snart som du bliver vred?
9 When God arose to judgment, to save all the humble of the earth. (Selah)
Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise Thee; the residue of wrath shalt Thou gird upon Thee.
da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
11 Vow, and pay unto the LORD your God; let all that are round about Him bring presents unto Him that is to be feared;
Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
12 He minisheth the spirit of princes; He is terrible to the kings of the earth.
Gører Løfte og betaler Herren, eders Gud det; alle I, som ere omkring ham, skulle bringe ham, den forfærdelige, Gave. Han borttager Fyrsternes Mod, han er forfærdelig for Kongerne paa Jorden.
