Psalms 9
1 Yahweh, I will praise you with all of my inner being. I will tell [others] about all the wonderful things that you have done.
En Psalm Davids, om den sköna, ungdomen, till att föresjunga. Jag tackar Herranom af allt hjerta, och förtäljer all din under.
2 I will sing to celebrate what you [MTY], who are much greater than all other gods, [have done].
Jag fröjdar mig, och är glad i dig; och lofvar ditt Namn, du Aldrahögste;
3 When my enemies realize [that you are very powerful], they stumble, and then they are killed.
Att du mina ovänner tillbakadrifvit hafver; de äro fallne och förgångne för dig.
4 You sat on your throne to judge people, and you have judged fairly/justly concerning me.
Ty du drifver min rätt och min sak; du sitter på stolen en rätt domare.
5 You rebuked the [people of other] nations and you have gotten rid of the wicked people; you have erased their names forever.
Du straffar Hedningarna, och förgör de ogudaktiga; deras namn utskrapar du till evig tid.
6 Our enemies have disappeared; you destroyed their cities, and people do not even remember them any more.
Fiendernas svärd hafva en ända; städerna hafver du omstört; deras åminnelse är förgången med dem.
7 But Yahweh rules forever. He judges [people while he sits] on his throne to judge people,
Men Herren blifver evinnerliga; sin stol hafver han beredt till doms.
8 and he will judge [all the people in] [SYN] the world justly; he will judge the people [of all nations] fairly [DOU].
Och han skall döma jordenes krets rätt, och regera folket rättsinneliga.
9 Yahweh will be a refuge for those who are oppressed; [yes, he will be like] a shelter for them when they have trouble.
Och Herren är dens fattigas beskärm; ett beskärm i nödene.
10 Those who know Yahweh [MTY] trust in him; he never abandons those who come to him ([for help/to worship him]).
Derföre hoppas till dig de som ditt Namn känna; ty du förlåter icke dem som söka dig, Herre.
11 Yahweh rules from Zion [Hill]; praise him while you sing to him. Tell [the people of all] the nations the [marvelous] things that he has done.
Lofver Herran, den i Zion bor; förkunner ibland folken hans verk.
12 He does not forget [to punish] those who have murdered others; and he will not ignore people who are crying because they are suffering.
Ty han kommer ihåg, och frågar efter deras blod; han förgäter icke de fattigas rop.
13 Yahweh, be merciful to me! Look at the ways that my enemies have injured me. Do not allow me to die [because of these injuries].
Herre, var mig nådelig; se till mitt elände ibland ovänner, du som upphäfver mig utu dödsens portom;
14 I want to live in order that I can praise you at the gates of Jerusalem [MTY] and to rejoice because you rescued me.
På det jag skall förtälja all din pris uti dottrenes Zions portom; att jag öfver dina hjelp glad vara må.
15 [It is as though] the [wicked people of many] nations have dug a pit for me to fall into [MET], but they have fallen into that same pit. [It is as if] they spread out a net to catch me [MET], but their feet have been caught in that same net.
Hedningarna äro försänkte uti den grop, som de tillredt hade; deras fot är fången i nätet, som de uppställt hade.
16 Because of what you have done, people know that you decide matters [fairly/justly], but [you allow] wicked people to be trapped by the same evil things that they themselves do.
Så förnimmer man, att Herren skaffar rätt; den ogudaktige är besnärd uti sina händers verk, genom ordet. (Sela)
17 Wicked people will all [die and] be buried in their graves, and [their spirits] will go to be with all those who have (forgotten about/rejected) you. (Sheol h7585)
Ack! att de ogudaktiga till helvetet vände vorde, och alle Hedningar, som Gud förgäta. (Sheol h7585)
18 But you will not forget those who are needy/poor; what they confidently expect will certainly happen.
Ty han skall icke så allstinges förgäta den fattiga; och de eländas hopp skall icke förtappadt varda evinnerliga.
19 Yahweh, arise and judge the [wicked] people of the nations; do not allow them to think that [because they are strong] they will never be punished.
Herre, statt upp, att menniskorna icke få öfverhandena; låt alla Hedningar för dig dömda varda.
20 Yahweh, teach them to be terrified about you. Cause them to know that they are merely human beings.
Gif dem, Herre, en mästare, att Hedningarna måga förnimma att de menniskor äro. (Sela)
