< Psaltaren 135 >

1 Halleluja. Lofver Herrans Namn; lofver, I Herrans tjenare;
Praise you the LORD. Praise you the name of the LORD; praise him, O you servants of the LORD.
2 I som stån i Herrans hus, uti vår Guds gårdar.
You that stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Lofver Herran, ty Herren är god; lofsjunger hans Namn, ty det är ljufligit.
Praise the LORD; for the LORD is good: sing praises to his name; for it is pleasant.
4 Ty Herren hafver utvalt sig Jacob; Israel till sin egendom.
For the LORD has chosen Jacob to himself, and Israel for his peculiar treasure.
5 Ty jag vet, att Herren är stor; och vår Herre för alla gudar.
For I know that the LORD is great, and that our Lord is above all gods.
6 Allt det Herren vill, det gör han, i himmelen, på jordene, i hafvet, och i all djup;
Whatever the LORD pleased, that did he in heaven, and in earth, in the seas, and all deep places.
7 Den der låter skyarna uppgå af jordenes ända; den der ljungelden gör, samt med regnet; den der vädret utu hemlig rum komma låter;
He causes the vapors to ascend from the ends of the earth; he makes lightning for the rain; he brings the wind out of his treasuries.
8 Den der förstfödingen slog uti Egypten, både af menniskor och af boskap;
Who smote the firstborn of Egypt, both of man and beast.
9 Och lät sina tecken och under komma öfver dig, Egypti land, öfver Pharao och alla hans tjenare;
Who sent tokens and wonders into the middle of you, O Egypt, on Pharaoh, and on all his servants.
10 Den mång folk slog, och drap mägtiga Konungar:
Who smote great nations, and slew mighty kings;
11 Sihon, de Amoreers Konung, och Og, Konungen i Basan, och all Konungarike i Canaan;
Sihon king of the Amorites, and Og king of Bashan, and all the kingdoms of Canaan:
12 Och gaf deras land till arfs, till arfs sino folke Israel.
And gave their land for an heritage, an heritage to Israel his people.
13 Herre, ditt Namn varar i evighet; din åminnelse, Herre, varar förutan ända.
Your name, O LORD, endures for ever; and your memorial, O LORD, throughout all generations.
14 Ty Herren skall döma sitt folk, och vara sina tjenare nådelig.
For the LORD will judge his people, and he will repent himself concerning his servants.
15 De Hedningars gudar äro silfver och guld, med menniskors händer gjorde.
The idols of the heathen are silver and gold, the work of men’s hands.
16 De hafva mun, och tala intet; de hafva ögon, och se intet.
They have mouths, but they speak not; eyes have they, but they see not;
17 De hafva öron, och höra intet, och ingen ande är i deras mun.
They have ears, but they hear not; neither is there any breath in their mouths.
18 De som sådana göra, äro lika så; alle de som hoppas på dem.
They that make them are like to them: so is every one that trusts in them.
19 Israels hus lofve Herran; lofver Herran, I af Aarons hus.
Bless the LORD, O house of Israel: bless the LORD, O house of Aaron:
20 I af Levi hus, lofver Herran; I som frukten Herran, lofver Herran.
Bless the LORD, O house of Levi: you that fear the LORD, bless the LORD.
21 Lofvad vare Herren af Zion, den i Jerusalem bor. Halleluja.
Blessed be the LORD out of Zion, which dwells at Jerusalem. Praise you the LORD.
