Psalms 76
1 Unto the end, in praises, a psalm for Asaph: a canticle to the Assyrians. In Judea God is known: his name is great in Israel.
Til Sangmesteren; med Strengeleg; en Psalme af Asaf, en Sang.
2 And his place is in peace: and his abode in Sion:
Gud er kendt i Juda, hans Navn er stort i Israel,
3 There hath he broken the powers of bows, the shield, the sword, and the battie.
og hans Paulun var i Salem, og hans Bolig i Zion.
4 Thou enlightenest wonderfully from the everlasting hills.
Der sønderbrød han Buens Lyn, Skjold og Sværd og Krig. (Sela)
5 All the foolish of heart were troubled. They have slept their sleep; and all the men of riches have found nothing in their hands.
Du straaler i Glans og Herlighed fra de paa Bytte rige Bjerge.
6 At thy rebuke, O God of Jacob, they have all slumbered that mounted on horseback.
De stolte af Hjerte blive plyndrede, de slumre deres Søvn; og ingen af Stridsmændene fandt Magt i deres Hænder.
7 Thou art terrible, and who shall resist thee? from that time thy wrath.
For din Trusel, Jakobs Gud! er baade Hest og Vogn falden i den dybe Søvn.
8 Thou hast caused judgment to be heard from heaven: the earth trembled and was still,
Du, ja, du er forfærdelig, og hvo kan bestaa for dit Ansigt, saa snart som du bliver vred?
9 When God arose in judgment, to save all the meek of the earth.
Du lod høre Dom fra Himmelen; Jorden frygtede og blev stille,
10 For the thought of man shall give praise to thee: and the remainders of the thought shall keep holiday to thee.
da Gud gjorde sig rede til Dom, til at frelse alle de sagtmodige paa Jorden. (Sela)
11 Vow ye, and pay to the Lord your God: all you that are round about him bring presents. To him that is terrible,
Thi et Menneskes Vrede bereder dig Pris; hvad der bliver tilovers af Vreden, omgjorde du dig med.
12 Even to him who taketh away the spirit of princes: to the terrible with the kings of the earth.
Gører Løfte og betaler Herren, eders Gud det; alle I, som ere omkring ham, skulle bringe ham, den forfærdelige, Gave. Han borttager Fyrsternes Mod, han er forfærdelig for Kongerne paa Jorden.
