Psalms 64
1 God, listen to me as I tell you the things that I am worried about. I am afraid of my enemies; so save/rescue me from them.
Til Sangmesteren; en Psalme af David.
2 Protect me from what wicked men are planning to do to me; protect me from that gang of men who do what is evil.
Gud! hør min Røst i min Klage, bevar mit Liv fra Fjendens frygtelige Magt.
3 The hostile things they say [MTY] are like [SIM] [sharp] swords; their cruel words are like [SIM] arrows.
Skjul mig for de ondes lønlige Raad, for deres Forsamling, som gøre Uret,
4 Without being afraid, they [lie about people and slander people] who have not done what is wrong, like someone who suddenly jumps up from where he is hiding and shoots [arrows] at his enemy [MET].
som skærpe deres Tunge som et Sværd; de skyde deres Pil, det bitre Ord,
5 They encourage each other about doing the evil things that they are planning to do; they talk [with each other] about where they can set traps to catch people, and they think, “No one [RHQ] will see what we are doing,
for i Skjul at skyde den retsindige; hastelig skyde de paa ham og frygte ikke.
6 because we have planned very well the crime that we are going to commit!” No one can fully understand what people can think and plan!
De styrke sig i deres onde Handel, de fortælle, hvorledes de ville skjule Snarer; de sige: Hvo kan se dem?
7 But [it will be as though] God will shoot his arrows at them, and suddenly they will be wounded.
De udtænke Misgerninger, de fuldkomme, hvad de nøje udtænke: Ja, enhvers Inderste og Hjerte er et Dyb.
8 Because of what they say [MTY], he will get rid of them, and then everyone who sees [what has happened to] them will shake their heads [to ridicule them].
Men Gud skyder paa dem; Pilen kommer hastigt, den bliver deres Saar.
9 And then everyone will be afraid [to sin because of what might happen to them, also]; they will tell others what God has done, and they themselves will think much about it.
Og de skulle falde for deres Tunges Skyld; hver, som ser paa dem, skal fly langt bort.
10 Righteous people should rejoice because of what Yahweh [has done]; they should go to him to (find protection/be safe); and all those who are godly will praise him.
Og alle Mennesker skulle frygte og forkynde Guds Gerning og forstaa, at det er hans Værk. Den retfærdige skal glædes i Herren og forlade sig paa ham; og alle oprigtige i Hjertet skulle prise sig lykkelige.
