Psalms 108
1 God, I am (very confident/trusting completely) [IDM] in you. I will sing to praise [you]. with all my inner being.
En Psalmvisa Davids. Gud, det är mitt rätta allvar, jag vill sjunga. och lofva; min ära också.
2 I will arise before the sun rises, and I will [praise you while I play] my [big] harp and my (lyre/small harp).
Vaka upp, psaltare och harpa, jag vill bittida uppe vara.
3 [I prayed], “Yahweh, I will thank you among [all] the people-groups; I will sing to praise you among the nations,
Jag vill tacka dig, Herre, ibland folken; jag vill lofsjunga dig ibland menniskorna;
4 because your faithful love for us reaches up to the heavens, and your faithfully doing what you promise [is as great as the distance] up to the clouds.
Ty din nåd räcker så vidt som himmelen är; och din sanning så vidt som skyarna gå.
5 Yahweh, [show] in the heavens that you are very great! And [show] your glory [to people] all over the earth!
Upphöj dig, Gud, öfver himmelen, och din äro öfver all land;
6 Answer our [prayers] and by your power help us [MTY] [to defeat our enemies] in order that we, the people whom you love, may be saved/rescued.”
På det dine älskelige vänner måga förlossade varda; hjelp med dina högra hand, och bönhör mig.
7 And [Yahweh answered our prayers and] spoke from his temple, saying, “Because I have conquered [your enemies], I will joyfully [everything in] [city] and I will distribute among my people [the valuable things] in Succoth Valley.
Gud talar i sinom helgedom, dess gläder jag mig; och vill skifta Sichem, och afmäta den dalen Succoth.
8 The Gilead [region] is mine; the [people of the tribe of] Manasseh are mine; [the tribe of] Ephraim is [like] my war helmet, and [the tribe of Judah] is like the (scepter/stick that I hold which shows that I am the ruler) [MET];
Gilead är min, Manasse är ock min, och Ephraim är mins hufvuds magt. Juda är min Förste.
9 the Moab [region] is [like] my washbasin [MET]; I throw my sandal in the Edom [area to show that it belongs to me]; I shout triumphantly because I have defeated [the people of] the Philistia [area].”
Moab är mitt tvättekar; jag vill sträcka mina skor öfver Edom; öfver de Philisteer vill jag fröjdas.
10 [Because we want to attack the people of] Edom, (who will lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it?/I want someone to lead my [army triumphantly] to their [capital] city that has strong walls around it.) [RHQ]
Ho vill föra mig uti en fast stad? Ho vill leda mig intill Edom?
11 God, we [hope that] [RHQ] you have not abandoned us, and that you will go with us when our army marches out [to fight our enemies].
Skall icke du göra det, Gud, som oss förkastat hafver, och drager icke ut, Gud, med vårom här?
12 [We need you to] help us when we fight against our enemies, because the help that humans can give us is worthless.
Skaffa oss bistånd i nödene; ty menniskos hjelp är fåfängelig.
13 [But] with you [helping us], we shall win; you will [enable us to] defeat our enemies.
I Gudi vilje vi bevisa manlig verk; han skall underträda våra fiendar.
