Psalms 34
1 [By David; when he pretended to be insane before Abimelech, who drove him away, and he departed.] I will bless Jehovah at all times. His praise will always be in my mouth.
Af David, da han lod afsindig for Abimelek, og denne jog ham fra sig, og han drog bort.
2 My soul shall boast in Jehovah. The humble shall hear of it, and be glad.
Jeg vil love HERREN til hver en Tid, hans Pris skal stadig fylde min Mund;
3 Oh magnify Jehovah with me. Let us exalt his name together.
min Sjæl skal rose sig af HERREN, de ydmyge skal høre det og glæde sig.
4 I sought Jehovah, and he answered me, and delivered me from all my fears.
Hylder HERREN i Fællig med mig, lad os sammen ophøje hans Navn!
5 They looked to him and were radiant, and their faces are not ashamed.
Jeg søgte HERREN, og han svarede mig og friede mig fra alle mine Rædsler.
6 This poor man cried, and Jehovah heard him, and saved him out of all his troubles.
Se hen til ham og straal af Glæde, eders Aasyn skal ikke beskæmmes.
7 The angel of Jehovah encamps around those who fear him, and delivers them.
Her er en arm, der raabte, og HERREN hørte, af al hans Trængsel frelste han ham.
8 Oh taste and see that Jehovah is good. Blessed is the man who takes refuge in him.
HERRENS Engel slaar Lejr om dem, der frygter ham, og frier dem.
9 Oh fear Jehovah, you his holy ones, for there is no lack with those who fear him.
Smag og se, at HERREN er god, salig den Mand, der lider paa ham!
10 The young lions do lack, and suffer hunger, but those who seek Jehovah shall not lack any good thing.
Frygter HERREN, I hans hellige, thi de, der frygter ham, mangler intet.
11 Come, you children, listen to me. I will teach you the fear of Jehovah.
Unge Løver lider Nød og sulter, men de, der søger HERREN, dem fattes intet godt.
12 Who is someone who desires life, and loves many days, that he may see good?
Kom hid, Børnlille, og hør paa mig, jeg vil lære jer HERRENS Frygt.
13 Keep your tongue from evil, and your lips from speaking lies.
Om nogen attraar Liv og ønsker sig Dage for at skue Lykke,
14 Turn away from evil, and do good. Seek peace, and pursue it.
saa var din Tunge for ondt, dine Læber fra at tale Svig;
15 The eyes of Jehovah are toward the righteous. His ears listen to their cry.
hold dig fra ondt og øv godt, søg Fred og jag derefter.
16 Jehovah's face is against those who do evil, to cut off the memory of them from the earth.
paa retfærdige hviler hans Øjne, hans Ører hører deres Raab;
17 The righteous cry out, and Jehovah hears, and delivers them out of all their troubles.
Mod dem, der gør ondt, er HERRENS Aasyn for at slette deres Minde af Jorden;
18 Jehovah is near to those who have a broken heart, and saves those who have a crushed spirit.
naar de skriger, hører HERREN og frier dem af al deres Trængsel.
19 Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but Jehovah delivers him out of them all.
HERREN er nær hos dem, hvis Hjerte er knust, han frelser dem, hvis Aand er brudt.
20 He protects all of his bones. Not one of them is broken.
Den retfærdiges Lidelser er mange, men HERREN frier ham af dem alle;
21 Evil shall kill the wicked. Those who hate the righteous shall be condemned.
han vogter alle hans Ledemod, ikke et eneste brydes.
22 Jehovah redeems the soul of his servants. None of those who take refuge in him shall be condemned.
Ulykke bringer de gudløse Død, og bøde skal de, der hader retfærdige. HERREN forløser sine Tjeneres Sjæl, og ingen, der lider paa ham, skal bøde.
