Psalms 46
1 “To the chief musician: by the sons of Korach, upon 'Alamoth, a song.” God is our protection and strength, a help in distresses, very readily found.
Til Sangmesteren; af Koras Børn; en Sang; til Alamoth.
2 Therefore will we not fear, even when the earth is transformed, and when mountains are moved into the heart of the seas;
Gud er vor Tillid og Styrke, en Hjælp i Angester, prøvet til fulde.
3 [When] the waters thereof roar and foam, when mountains quake before his majesty. (Selah)
Derfor ville vi ikke frygte, om end Jorden forandres, og Bjergene synke ned i Havets Dyb;
4 [There] is a river, its rivulets cause to rejoice the city of God, the sanctuary of the dwellings of the Most High.
om end Vandene deri bruse og oprøres, Bjergene bæve for dets Vælde. (Sela)
5 God is in her midst; she shall not be moved: God will ever help her, at the dawning of [her] morning.
Men en Strøm med sine Bække glæder Guds Stad, Helligdommen, den Højestes Boliger.
6 Nations rage, kingdoms are moved: he letteth his voice be heard, the earth melteth away.
Gud er midt i den, den skal ikke rokkes; Gud skal hjælpe den, naar Morgenen frembryder.
7 The Lord of hosts is with us; a defense unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
Hedningerne brusede, Rigerne bevægedes; han udgav sin Røst, Jorden smeltedes.
8 Come, look at the deeds of the Lord, who hath made desolations on the earth.
Herren Zebaoth er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
9 He causeth wars to cease unto the end of the earth; he breaketh the bow, and cutteth the spear in pieces; he burneth wagons in the fire.
Kommer, ser Herrens Gerninger, hvorledes han har anrettet Ødelæggelser paa Jorden.
10 Leave off, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted on the earth.
Han, som kommer Krigene til at holde op indtil Jordens Ende, sønderbryder Buen og afhugger Spydet, opbrænder Vognene med Ild.
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; a defence unto us is the God of Jacob. (Selah)
Lader af og vider, at jeg er Gud, ophøjet iblandt Hedningerne, ophøjet paa Jorden. Herren Zebaoth er med os, Jakobs Gud er vor faste Borg. (Sela)
