< Psalms 28 >

1 BY DAVID. To You, O YHWH, I call, My rock, do not be silent to me! Lest You are silent to me, And I have been compared With those going down to the pit.
(Af David.) Jeg råber til dig, o Herre, min Klippe, vær ikke tavs imod mig, at jeg ej, når du tier, skal blive som de, der synker i Graven.
2 Hear the voice of my supplications, In my crying to You, In my lifting up my hands toward your holy oracle.
Hør min tryglende Røst, når jeg råber til dig, løfter Hænderne op mod dit hellige Tempel.
3 Do not draw me with the wicked, And with workers of iniquity, Speaking peace with their neighbors, And evil in their heart.
Riv mig ej bort med gudløse, Udådsmænd, som har ondt i Sinde mod Næsten trods venlige Ord.
4 Give to them according to their acting, And according to the evil of their doings. Give to them according to the work of their hands. Return their deed to them.
Løn dem for deres Idræt og onde Gerninger; løn dem for deres Hænders Værk, gengæld dem efter Fortjeneste!
5 For they do not attend to the doing of YHWH, And to the work of His hands. He throws them down, And does not build them up.
Thi HERRENs Gerning ænser de ikke, ej heller hans Hænders Værk. Han nedbryde dem og opbygge dem ej!
6 Blessed [is] YHWH, For He has heard the voice of my supplications.
Lovet være HERREN, thi han har hørt min tryglende Røst;
7 YHWH [is] my strength, and my shield, In Him my heart trusted, and I have been helped. And my heart exults, And I thank Him with my song.
min Styrke, mit Skjold er HERREN, mit Hjerte stoler på ham. Jeg fik Hjælp, mit Hjerte jubler, jeg takker ham med min Sang.
8 YHWH [is] strength to him, Indeed, the strength of the salvation of His anointed [is] He.
HERREN er Værn for sit Folk, sin Salvedes Tilflugt og Frelse.
9 Save Your people, and bless Your inheritance, And feed them, and carry them for all time!
Frels dit Folk og velsign din Arv, røgt dem og bær dem til evig Tid!
