< Psalms 36 >
1 [Wicked people continually desire to] sin. They consider [IDM] that they do not need to revere God.
Til Sangmesteren; af David, Herrens Tjener.
2 Because they are very proud, they do not think that God will discover their sins and condemn them (OR, they do not think about their sins and hate themselves for it).
Den ugudeliges Overtrædelser sige mig inden i mit Hjerte: Der er ikke Guds Frygt for hans Øjne.
3 [Everything] that they say is deceitful and full of lies; they no longer do what is good and are no longer wise.
Thi han smigrer for sig selv i sine Øjne, med Hensyn til, at hans Misgerning skulde blive fundet og hadet.
4 While they are lying on their beds, they plan to do things to harm [others]; they are determined to do things that are not good, and they never refuse [to do what is] evil.
Hans Munds Ord ere Uret og Svig; han har ladet af at handle viselig, at gøre godt.
5 Yahweh, your faithful love for us reaches as high as the heavens, you faithfully [do what you have promised]; [it is as though your doing that] extends up to the clouds.
Han optænker Uret paa sit Leje; han stiller sig paa en Vej, der ikke er god, det onde forkaster han ikke.
6 Your righteous behavior is [as permanent as] the highest mountains [MET], your acting justly [will continue as long as] the deepest oceans [exist]. You take care of people and you take care of animals.
Herre! din Miskundhed er i Himlene; din Sandhed naar til Skyerne.
7 God, your faithful love for us is very precious. You protect us like birds protect their baby birds under their wings [MET].
Din Retfærdighed er som Gudsbjerge, dine Domme som det store Dyb; Herre! du frelser Mennesker og Dyr.
8 You provide for us plenty of food from the abundant supply [IDM] that you have; your great blessings for us [flow] like a river.
Gud! hvor dyrebar er din Miskundhed; og Menneskens Børn skulle skjule sig under dine Vingers Skygge.
9 You are the one who causes everything to live; your light is what enables us to see.
De skulle mættes af dit Hus's Fedme, og du skal give dem at drikke af din Lifligheds Bæk.
10 Continue to faithfully love those who have experienced a relationship with you, and bless those who act righteously/justly.
Thi hos dig er Livets Kilde; i dit Lys skulle vi se Lys.
11 Do not allow proud people [SYN] to attack me, or allow wicked people to chase me away.
Lad din Miskundhed vare ved imod dem, som dig kende, og din Retfærdighed imod de oprigtige af Hjertet.
12 Look where evil people have fallen on the ground, defeated; they were thrown down, and they will never rise again.
Lad den hovmodiges Fod ikke komme over mig og de ugudeliges Haand ikke bortstøde mig. Hist faldt de, som gjorde Uret; de bleve nedstødte og kunde ikke staa op.
