1 Til Korherren. Maskil af David (52:2) Dengang Edomitten Do'eg gik hen og fortalte Saul, at David var taget ind til Akimelek (52:3) Du stærke, hvi bryster du dig af din Ondskab imod den fromme?

1 For the choir director. A Maskil of David, when Doeg the Edomite came and told Saul and said to him, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.”Why do you boast in evil, O mighty man?The lovingkindness of God endures all day long.

2 (52:4) Du pønser hele Dagen på ondt; din Tunge er hvas som en Kniv, du Rænkesmed,

2 Your tongue devises destruction,Like a sharp razor, O worker of deceit.

3 (52:5) du foretrækker ondt for godt, Løgn for sanddru Tale. - Sela.

3 You love evil more than good,Falsehood more than speaking what is right. Selah.

4 (52:6) Du elsker al ødelæggende Tale, du falske Tunge!

4 You love all words that devour,O deceitful tongue.

5 (52:7) Derfor styrte Gud dig for evigt, han gribe dig, rive dig ud af dit Telt, han rykke dig op af de levendes Land! - Sela.

5 But God will break you down forever;He will snatch you up and tear you away from your tent,And uproot you from the land of the living. Selah.

6 (52:8) De retfærdige ser det, frygter og håner ham leende:

6 The righteous will see and fear,And will laugh at him, saying,

7 (52:9) "Se der den Mand, der ej gjorde Gud til sit Værn, men stoled på sin megen Rigdom, trodsede på sin Velstand!"

7 “Behold, the man who would not make God his refuge,But trusted in the abundance of his richesAnd was strong in his evil desire.”

8 (52:10) Men jeg er som et frodigt Olietræ i Guds Hus, Guds Miskundhed stoler jeg evigt og altid på.

8 But as for me, I am like a green olive tree in the house of God;I trust in the lovingkindness of God forever and ever.

9 (52:11) Evindelig takker jeg dig, fordi du greb ind; jeg vidner iblandt dine fromme, at godt er dit Navn. 

9 I will give You thanks forever, because You have done it,And I will wait on Your name, for it is good, in the presence of Your godly ones.
