4 (81:5) Thi det er Lov i Israel, et Bud fra Jakobs Gud;

4 For it is a statute for Israel,An ordinance of the God of Jacob.

5 (81:6) han gjorde det til en Vedtægt i Josef, da han drog ud fra Ægypten, hvor han hørte et Sprog, han ikke kendte.

5 He established it for a testimony in JosephWhen he went throughout the land of Egypt.I heard a language that I did not know:

6 (81:7) "Jeg fried hans Skulder for Byrden, hans Hænder slap fri for Kurven.

6 “I relieved his shoulder of the burden,His hands were freed from the basket.

7 (81:8) I Nøden råbte du, og jeg frelste dig, jeg svarede dig i Tordenens Skjul, jeg prøvede dig ved Meribas Vande. - Sela.

7 “You called in trouble and I rescued you;I answered you in the hiding place of thunder;I proved you at the waters of Meribah. Selah.

8 (81:9) Hør, mit Folk, jeg vil vidne for dig, Israel, ak, om du hørte mig!

8 “Hear, O My people, and I will admonish you;O Israel, if you would listen to Me!

9 (81:10) En fremmed Gud må ej findes hos dig, tilbed ikke andres Gud!

9 “Let there be no strange god among you;Nor shall you worship any foreign god.

10 (81:11) Jeg, HERREN, jeg er din Gud! som førte dig op fra Ægypten; luk din Mund vidt op, og jeg vil fylde den!

10 “I, the Lord, am your God,Who brought you up from the land of Egypt;Open your mouth wide and I will fill it.

11 (81:12) Men mit Folk vilde ikke høre min Røst, Israel lød mig ikke.

11 “But My people did not listen to My voice,And Israel did not obey Me.

12 (81:13) Da lod jeg dem fare i deres Stivsind, de vandrede efter deres egne Råd.

12 “So I gave them over to the stubbornness of their heart,To walk in their own devices.

13 (81:14) Ak, vilde mit Folk dog høre mig, Israel gå mine Veje!

13 “Oh that My people would listen to Me,That Israel would walk in My ways!

14 (81:15) Da kued jeg snart deres Fjender, vendte min Hånd mod deres Uvenner!

14 “I would quickly subdue their enemiesAnd turn My hand against their adversaries.

15 (81:16) Deres Avindsmænd skulde falde og gå til Grunde for evigt;

15 “Those who hate the Lord would pretend obedience to Him,And their time of punishment would be forever.

16 (81:17) jeg nærede dig med Hvedens Fedme, mættede dig med Honning fra Klippen!" 

16 “But I would feed you with the finest of the wheat,And with honey from the rock I would satisfy you.”
