Psalms 54

1 God, by your power [MTY, DOU] save me [from my enemies], and show people that I have not done anything that is wrong!

Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Undervisning af David,

2 God, listen to my prayer; listen to what I say to you,

der Sifiterne kom og sagde til Saul: Har David ikke skjult sig hos os?

3 because strangers are [trying to] attack me; proud men are wanting to kill me; men who do not have any (respect for/interest in) you.

Frels mig, Gud! ved dit Navn og beskik mig Ret ved din Magt.

4 But God is the one who helps me; Yahweh defends/protects me [from my enemies].

Gud! hør min Bøn, vend Øren til min Munds Tale.

5 He will cause the evil things that they want to do to me to happen to them instead; because he faithfully [does what he promises], he will get rid of them.

Thi fremmede staa op imod mig, og Voldsmænd søge efter mit Liv; de have ikke Gud for Øje. (Sela)

6 Yahweh, I will gladly give an offering to you because I want to, and I will thank you [MTY], for you are good [to me];

Se, Gud hjælper mig; Herren er iblandt dem, som opholde min Sjæl.

7 you have rescued me from all my troubles, and I have seen that you have defeated my enemies.

Han skal betale mine Fjender det onde; udryd dem ifølge din Sandhed! Jeg vil ofre dig frivilligt Offer; jeg vil takke dit Navn, Herre! thi det er godt. Thi han friede mig af al Nød, og mit Øje saa sin Lyst paa mine Fjender.
