Psalms 75
1 We give thanks to you; our God, we thank you. You are close to us, and we proclaim to others the wonderful things that you have done [for us].
Til Sangmesteren. Al-tasjhet. En Salme af Asaf. En Sang.
2 [You have said], “I have appointed a time when I will judge people, and I will judge [everyone] fairly.
Vi takker dig, Gud, vi takker dig; de, der paakalder dit Navn, fortæller dine Undere.
3 When the earth shakes and all the creatures on the earth tremble, I am the one who will (keep its foundations steady/prevent it from being destroyed).
»Selv om jeg udsætter Sagen, dømmer jeg dog med Retfærd;
4 I say to people who (boast/talk proudly about themselves), ‘Stop bragging!’ and I say to wicked people, ‘Do not proudly [do things to] show how great you are [IDM]!
vakler end Jorden og alle, som bor derpaa, har jeg dog grundfæstet dens Støtter.« (Sela)
5 Do not be arrogant, and do not speak so boastfully!’”
Til Daarerne siger jeg: »Vær ej Daarer!« og til de gudløse: »Løft ej Hornet,
6 The one who judges people does not come from the east or from the west, and he does not come from the desert.
løft ikke eders Horn mod Himlen, tal ikke med knejsende Nakke!«
7 God is the one who judges people; he says that some have sinned and must be punished, and that others have not done what is wrong.
Thi hverken fra Øst eller Vest kommer Hjælp, ej heller fra Ørk eller Bjerge.
8 [It is as though] Yahweh holds a cup in his hand; it is filled with wine that [has spices] mixed in it [to cause those who drink it to become more drunk]; and when Yahweh pours it out, he will force all the wicked people to drink it; they will drink every drop of it, [which means that he will give them all the punishment that they deserve].
Nej, den, som dømmer, er Gud, han nedbøjer en, ophøjer en anden.
9 But [as for me], I will never stop saying what the God whom Jacob [worshiped has done]; I will never quit singing to praise him.
Thi i HERRENS Haand er et Bæger med skummende, krydret Vin, han skænker i for een efter een, selv Bærmen drikker de ud; alle Jordens gudløse drikker.
10 He will destroy the power [IDM] of wicked people, but he will cause righteous people to become more powerful.
Men jeg skal juble evindelig, lovsynge Jakobs Gud; alle de gudløses Horn stødes af, de retfærdiges Horn skal knejse!
