< Psalms 115 >

1 Not to us, O YHWH, not to us, But to Your Name give glory, For Your kindness, for Your truth.
Ikke os, o Herre, ikke os, men dit navn, det give du ære for din Miskundheds og Trofastheds Skyld!
2 Why do the nations say, “Where, pray, [is] their God?”
Hvi skal Folkene sige: "Hvor er dog deres Gud?"
3 And our God [is] in the heavens, All that He has pleased He has done.
Vor Gud, han er i Himlen; alt, hvad han vil, det gør han!
4 Their idols [are] silver and gold, work of man’s hands,
Deres Billeder er Sølv og Guld, Værk af Menneskehænder;
5 They have a mouth, and they do not speak, They have eyes, and they do not see,
de har Mund, men taler ikke, Øjne, men ser dog ej;
6 They have ears, and they do not hear, They have a nose, and they do not smell,
de har Ører, men hører ikke, Næse men lugter dog ej;
7 Their hands, but they do not handle, Their feet, and they do not walk;
de har Hænder, men føler ikke, Fødder, men går dog ej, deres Strube frembringer ikke en Lyd.
8 Nor do they mutter through their throat, Their makers are like them, Everyone who is trusting in them.
Som dem skal de, der lavede dem, blive, enhver, som stoler på dem!
9 O Israel, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”
Israel stoler på HERREN, han er deres Hjælp og Skjold;
10 O house of Aaron, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”
Arons Hus stoler på HERREN, han er deres Hjælp og Skjold;
11 You fearing YHWH, trust in YHWH, “He [is] their help and their shield.”
de, som frygter HERREN, stoler på ham, han er deres Hjælp og Skjold.
12 YHWH has remembered us, He blesses, He blesses the house of Israel, He blesses the house of Aaron,
HERREN kommer os i Hu, velsigner, velsigner Israels Hus, velsigner Arons Hus,
13 He blesses those fearing YHWH, The small with the great.
velsigner dem, der frygter HERREN, og det både små og store.
14 YHWH adds to you—to you and to your sons.
HERREN lader eder vokse i Tal, eder og eders Børn;
15 Blessed [are] you of YHWH, Maker of the heavens and earth,
velsignet er I af HERREN, Himlens og Jordens Skaber.
16 The heavens—the heavens [are] YHWH’s, And He has given the earth to sons of men;
Himlen er HERRENs Himmel, men Jorden gav han til Menneskens Børn.
17 The dead do not praise YAH, Nor any going down to silence.
De døde priser ej HERREN, ingen af dem, der steg ned i det tavse.
18 And we, we bless YAH, From now on, and for all time. Praise YAH!
Men vi, vi lover HERREN, fra nu og til evig Tid!
