< Psalms 118 >
1 Give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Halleluja! Tak HERREN, thi han er god, thi hans Miskundhed varer evindelig.
2 Let Israel now say that his loving kindness endures forever.
Israel sige: »Thi hans Miskundhed varer evindelig!«
3 Let the house of Aaron now say that his loving kindness endures forever.
Arons Hus sige: »Thi hans Miskundhed varer evindelig!«
4 Now let those who fear Yahweh say that his loving kindness endures forever.
De, som frygter HERREN, sige: »Thi hans Miskundhed varer evindelig!«
5 Out of my distress, I called on Yah. Yah answered me with freedom.
Jeg paakaldte HERREN i Trængslen, HERREN svared og førte mig ud i aabent Land.
6 Yahweh is on my side. I will not be afraid. What can man do to me?
HERREN er med mig, jeg frygter ikke, hvad kan Mennesker gøre mig?
7 Yahweh is on my side among those who help me. Therefore I will look in triumph at those who hate me.
HERREN, han er min Hjælper, jeg skal se med Fryd paa dem, der hader mig.
8 It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in man.
At ty til HERREN er godt fremfor at stole paa Mennesker;
9 It is better to take refuge in Yahweh, than to put confidence in princes.
at ty til HERREN er godt fremfor at stole paa Fyrster.
10 All the nations surrounded me, but in Yahweh’s name I cut them off.
Alle Folkeslag flokkedes om mig, jeg slog dem ned i HERRENS Navn;
11 They surrounded me, yes, they surrounded me. In Yahweh’s name I indeed cut them off.
de flokkedes om mig fra alle Sider, jeg slog dem ned i HERRENS Navn;
12 They surrounded me like bees. They are quenched like the burning thorns. In Yahweh’s name I cut them off.
de flokkedes om mig som Bier, blussed op som Ild i Torne, jeg slog dem ned i HERRENS Navn.
13 You pushed me back hard, to make me fall, but Yahweh helped me.
Haardt blev jeg ramt, saa jeg faldt, men HERREN hjalp mig.
14 Yah is my strength and song. He has become my salvation.
Min Styrke og Lovsang er HERREN, han blev mig til Frelse.
15 The voice of rejoicing and salvation is in the tents of the righteous. “The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly.
Jubel og Sejrsraab lyder i de retfærdiges Telte: »HERRENS højre øver Vælde,
16 The right hand of Yahweh is exalted! The right hand of Yahweh does valiantly!”
HERRENS højre er løftet, HERRENS højre øver Vælde!«
17 I will not die, but live, and declare Yah’s works.
Jeg skal ikke dø, men leve og kundgøre HERRENS Gerninger.
18 Yah has punished me severely, but he has not given me over to death.
HERREN tugted mig haardt, men gav mig ej hen i Døden.
19 Open to me the gates of righteousness. I will enter into them. I will give thanks to Yah.
Oplad mig Retfærdigheds Porte, ad dem gaar jeg ind og lovsynger HERREN!
20 This is the gate of Yahweh; the righteous will enter into it.
Her er HERRENS Port, ad den gaar retfærdige ind.
21 I will give thanks to you, for you have answered me, and have become my salvation.
Jeg vil takke dig, thi du bønhørte mig, og du blev mig til Frelse.
22 The stone which the builders rejected has become the cornerstone.
Den Sten, Bygmestrene forkastede, er blevet Hovedhjørnesten.
23 This is Yahweh’s doing. It is marvelous in our eyes.
Fra HERREN er dette kommet, det er underfuldt for vore Øjne.
24 This is the day that Yahweh has made. We will rejoice and be glad in it!
Denne er Dagen, som HERREN har gjort, lad os juble og glæde os paa den!
25 Save us now, we beg you, Yahweh! Yahweh, we beg you, send prosperity now.
Ak, HERRE, frels dog, ak, HERRE, lad det dog lykkes!
26 Blessed is he who comes in Yahweh’s name! We have blessed you out of Yahweh’s house.
Velsignet den, der kommer, i HERRENS Navn; vi velsigner eder fra HERRENS Hus!
27 Yahweh is God, and he has given us light. Bind the sacrifice with cords, even to the horns of the altar.
HERREN er Gud, og han lod det lysne for os. Festtoget med Grenene slynge sig frem, til Alterets Horn er naaet!
28 You are my God, and I will give thanks to you. You are my God, I will exalt you.
Du er min Gud, jeg vil takke dig, min Gud, jeg vil ophøje dig!
29 Oh give thanks to Yahweh, for he is good, for his loving kindness endures forever.
Tak HERREN, thi han er god, thi hans Miskundhed varer evindelig!
