Psalms 76
1 For the end, among the Hymns, a Psalm for Asaph; a Song for the Assyrian. God is known in Judea: his name is great in Israel.
Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Psalme af Asaf, en Sang.
2 And his place has been in peace, and his dwelling-place in Sion.
Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
3 There he broke the power of the bows, the shield, and the sword, and the battle. (Pause)
og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
4 You do wonderfully shine forth from the everlasting mountains.
Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
5 All the simple ones in heart were troubled; all the men of wealth have slept their sleep, and have found nothing in their hands.
Du straaler i Glans og Herlighed fra de paa Bytte rige Bjerge.
6 At your rebuke, O God of Jacob, the riders on horses slumbered.
De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
7 You are terrible; and who shall withstand you, because of your anger?
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 in heart. (Pause)
Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
10 For the inward thought of man shall give thanks to you: and the memorial of his inward thought shall keep a feast to you.
da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
11 Vow, and pay [your vows] to the Lord our God; all that are round about him shall bring gifts, [even] to him that is terrible,
Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
12 and that takes away the spirits of princes; to him that is terrible among 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.
