< Psalms 76 >
1 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 his tabernacle, and his dwelling place in Zion.
Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
3 There broke he the arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Selah)
og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
4 You are more glorious and excellent than the mountains of prey.
Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
5 The stouthearted are spoiled, they have slept 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 your rebuke, O God of Jacob, both the chariot and horse are cast into a dead sleep.
De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
7 You, even you, are to be feared: and who may stand in your sight when once you are angry?
For din Trusel, Jakobs Gud! er baade Hest og Vogn falden i den dybe Søvn.
8 You did cause judgment 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 meek of the earth. (Selah)
Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
10 Surely the wrath of man shall praise you: the remainder of wrath shall you restrain.
da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
11 Vow, and pay to the LORD your God: let all that be round about him bring presents to him that ought to be feared.
Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
12 He shall cut off 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.
