Psalms 5
1 To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David. Give ear to my words, O LORD, consider my (meditation)
Til Sangmesteren; paa Nekiloth; en Psalme af David.
2 Hearken to the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: for to thee will I pray.
Herre! vend dine Øren til mine Ord, agt paa min Tanke!
3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O LORD; in the morning will I direct my prayer to thee, and will look up.
Giv Agt paa mit Raabs Røst, min Konge og min Gud! thi til dig beder jeg.
4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: neither shall evil dwell with thee.
Herre! om Morgenen høre du min Røst! jeg vil fremstille mig om Morgenen for dig og vente.
5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Thi du er ikke en Gud, som har Lyst til Ugudelighed; den onde skal ikke bo hos dig.
6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak falsehood: the LORD will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.
Daarer skulle ikke bestaa for dine Øjne! du hader alle dem, som gøre Uret.
7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: and in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.
Du lader dem, som tale Løgn, gaa til Grunde: Herren har Vederstyggelighed til en blodgerrig og falsk Mand.
8 Lead me, O LORD, in thy righteousness because of my enemies; make thy way straight before my face.
Men jeg vil komme til dit Hus ved din store Miskundhed; jeg vil tilbede imod dit hellige Tempel i din Frygt.
9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; their inward part is very wickedness; their throat is an open sepulchre; they flatter with their tongue.
Herre! led mig i din Retfærdighed for mine Fjenders Skyld; jævn din Vej for mit Ansigt!
10 Destroy thou them, O God; let them fall by their own counsels; cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; for they have rebelled against thee.
Thi i deres Mund er intet bestandigt; deres Indre er Ondskab; deres Strube er en aaben Grav, de smigre med deres Tunge.
11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.
Gud! døm dem skyldige, at de falde formedelst deres Anslag; nedstød dem for deres mange Overtrædelsers Skyld, thi de ere genstridige imod dig.
12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou surround him as with a shield.
Men alle, som forlade sig paa dig, skulle glæde sig, de skulle fryde sig evindelig, og du skal skjule over dem; og de, som elske dit Navn, skulle fryde sig i dig. Thi du, Herre! velsigner en retfærdig, du dækker ham med Naade som med et Skjold.
