Psalms 36
1 [Wicked people continually desire to] sin. They consider [IDM] that they do not need to revere God.
Til Sangmesteren. Af HERRENS Tjener David.
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).
Synden taler til den gudløse inde i hans Hjerte; Gudsfrygt har han ikke for Øje;
3 [Everything] that they say is deceitful and full of lies; they no longer do what is good and are no longer wise.
thi den smigrer ham frækt og siger, at ingen skal finde hans Brøde og hade ham.
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 er Uret og Svig, han har ophørt at handle klogt og 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.
paa sit Leje udtænker han Uret, han træder en Vej, som ikke er god; det onde afskyr 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 rækker til Himlen, din Trofasthed 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 Retfærd er som Guds Bjerge, dine Domme som det store Dyb; HERRE, du frelser Folk og Fæ,
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.
hvor dyrebar er dog din Miskundhed, Gud! Og Menneskebørnene skjuler sig i dine Vingers Skygge;
9 You are the one who causes everything to live; your light is what enables us to see.
de kvæges ved dit Huses Fedme, du læsker dem af din Lifligheds Strøm;
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 skuer vi Lys!
11 Do not allow proud people [SYN] to attack me, or allow wicked people to chase me away.
Lad din Miskundhed blive over dem, der kender dig, din Retfærd over 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 Hovmods Fod ej træde mig ned, gudløses Haand ej jage mig bort. Se, Udaadsmændene falder, slaas ned, saa de ikke kan rejse sig.
