< Psalms 76 >
1 [For the Chief Musician. On stringed instruments. A Psalm by Asaph. A song.] In Judah, God is known. His name is great in Israel.
Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Psalme af Asaf, en Sang.
2 And his abode is in Salem, and his lair in Zion.
Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
3 There he broke the flaming arrows of the bow, the shield, and the sword, and the weapons of war. (Selah)
og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
4 Glorious are you, and excellent, more than mountains of game.
Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
5 Valiant men lie plundered, they have slept their last sleep. None of the men of war can lift their hands.
Du straaler i Glans og Herlighed fra de paa Bytte rige Bjerge.
6 At your rebuke, God of Jacob, both chariot and horse are cast into a deep sleep.
De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
7 You, even you, are to be feared. Who can stand in your sight when you are angry?
For din Trusel, Jakobs Gud! er baade Hest og Vogn falden i den dybe Søvn.
8 You pronounced judgment from heaven. The earth feared, and was silent,
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 afflicted ones of the earth. (Selah)
Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
10 Surely the wrath of man praises you. The survivors of your wrath are restrained.
da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
11 Make vows to the LORD your God, and fulfill them. Let all of his neighbors bring presents to him who is to be feared.
Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
12 He humbles the spirit of princes. He is feared by 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.
