Salme 92

1 (En Salme. En Sang for Sabbatsdagen.) Det er godt at takke HERREN, lovsynge dit navn, du højeste,

IT IS A GOOD THING TO GIVE THANKS UNTO THE LORD, AND TO SING PRAISES UNTO Your NAME, O MOST HIGH:

2 ved Gry forkynde din Nåde, om Natten din Trofasthed

To show forth your loving kindness in the morning, and your faithfulness every night,

3 til tistrenget Lyre, til Harpe, til Strengeleg på Citer!

Upon an instrument of ten strings, and upon the psaltery; upon the harp with a solemn sound.

4 Thi ved dit Værk har du glædet mig, HERRE, jeg jubler over dine Hænders Gerning.

For you, LORD, have made me glad through your work: I will triumph in the works of your hands.

5 Hvor store er dine Gerninger, HERRE, dine Tanker såre dybe!

O LORD, how great are your works! and your thoughts are very deep.

6 Tåben fatter det ikke, Dåren skønner ej sligt.

A brutish man knows not; neither does a fool understand this.

7 Spirer de gudløse end som Græsset, blomstrer end alle Udådsmænd, er det kun for at lægges øde for stedse,

When the wicked spring as the grass, and when all the workers of iniquity do flourish; it is that they shall be destroyed for ever:

8 men du er ophøjet for evigt, HERRE.

But you, LORD, are most high for evermore.

9 Thi se, dine Fjender, HERRE, se, dine Fjender går under, alle Udådsmænd spredes!

For, lo, your enemies, O LORD, for, lo, your enemies shall perish; all the workers of iniquity shall be scattered.

10 Du har løftet mit Horn som Vildoksens, kvæget mig med den friskeste Olie;

But my horn shall you exalt like the horn of an unicorn (ox): I shall be anointed with fresh oil.

11 det fryder mit Øje at se mine Fjender, mit Øre at høre mine Avindsmænd.

Mine eye also shall see my desire on mine enemies, and mine ears shall hear my desire of the wicked that rise up against me.

12 De retfærdige grønnes som Palmen, vokser som Libanons Ceder;

The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.

13 plantet i HERRENs Hus grønnes de i vor Guds Forgårde;

Those that be planted in the house of the LORD shall flourish in the courts of our God.

14 selv grånende bærer de Frugt, er friske og fulde af Saft

They shall still bring forth fruit in old age; they shall be fat and flourishing;

15 for at vidne, at HERREN er retvis, min Klippe, hos hvem ingen Uret findes.

To show that the LORD is upright: he is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in him.
