Psalms 5
1 For the Chief Musician; with the Nehiloth. A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
Til Sangmesteren; paa Nekiloth; en Psalme af David.
2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for unto thee do I pray.
Herre! vend dine Øren til mine Ord, agt paa min Tanke!
3 O LORD, in the morning shalt thou hear my voice; in the morning will I order [my prayer] unto thee, and will keep watch.
Giv Agt paa mit Raabs Røst, min Konge og min Gud! thi til dig beder jeg.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: evil shall not sojourn with thee.
Herre! om Morgenen høre du min Røst! jeg vil fremstille mig om Morgenen for dig og vente.
5 The arrogant shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Thi du er ikke en Gud, som har Lyst til Ugudelighed; den onde skal ikke bo hos dig.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak lies: the LORD abhorreth the bloodthirsty and deceitful man.
Daarer skulle ikke bestaa for dine Øjne! du hader alle dem, som gøre Uret.
7 But as for me, in the multitude of thy lovingkindness will I come into thy house: in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
Du lader dem, som tale Løgn, gaa til Grunde: Herren har Vederstyggelighed til en blodgerrig og falsk Mand.
8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; make thy way plain before my face.
Men jeg vil komme til dit Hus ved din store Miskundhed; jeg vil tilbede imod dit hellige Tempel i din Frygt.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness: their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
Herre! led mig i din Retfærdighed for mine Fjenders Skyld; jævn din Vej for mit Ansigt!
10 Hold them guilty, O God; let them fall by their own counsels: thrust them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
Thi i deres Mund er intet bestandigt; deres Indre er Ondskab; deres Strube er en aaben Grav, de smigre med deres Tunge.
11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice, let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
Gud! døm dem skyldige, at de falde formedelst deres Anslag; nedstød dem for deres mange Overtrædelsers Skyld, thi de ere genstridige imod dig.
12 For thou wilt bless the righteous; O LORD, thou wilt compass him with favour as with a shield.
Men alle, som forlade sig paa dig, skulle glæde sig, de skulle fryde sig evindelig, og du skal skjule over dem; og de, som elske dit Navn, skulle fryde sig i dig. Thi du, Herre! velsigner en retfærdig, du dækker ham med Naade som med et Skjold.
