< Psalms 138 >
1 Of David - I will give thanks to you with all heart my before [the] gods I will sing praises to you.
Jeg vil prise dig af mit ganske Hjerte; over for Guderne vil jeg lovsynge dig.
2 I will bow down to [the] temple of holiness your so I may give thanks to name your on covenant loyalty your and on faithfulness your for you have made great over all name your word your.
Jeg vil kaste mig ned for dit hellige Tempel og prise dit Navn for din Miskundhed og for din Sandhed; thi du har gjort dit Ord herligt over al dit Navns Herlighed.
3 On [the] day [when] I called out and you answered me you made bold me in soul my strength.
Den Dag, jeg kaldte, da bønhørte du mig; du gav mig Mod, i min Sjæl kom Styrke.
4 They will give thanks to you O Yahweh all [the] kings of [the] earth if they have heard [the] words of mouth your.
Herre! alle Konger paa Jorden skulle prise dig; thi de have hørt din Munds Ord.
5 So they may sing in [the] ways of Yahweh for [is] great [the] glory of Yahweh.
Og de skulle synge om Herrens Veje; thi stor er Herrens Ære.
6 For [is] exalted Yahweh and [the] lowly he sees and [the] proud from a distance he knows.
Thi Herren er høj og ser til den ringe, og den stolte kender han i det fjerne.
7 If I will walk - in [the] midst of trouble you preserve alive me on [the] anger of enemies my you stretch out hand your and it saves me right [hand] your.
Naar jeg vandrer midt i Angest, vil du holde mig i Live; du vil udrække din Haand imod mine Fjenders Vrede, og din højre Haand vil frelse mig.
8 Yahweh he will avenge for me O Yahweh covenant loyalty your [is] for ever [the] works of hands your may not you abandon.
Herren skal fuldføre det for mig; Herre! din Miskundhed varer evindelig, opgiv ikke dine Hænders Gerninger.
