1 Salm af David. En sang ved Tempelindvielsen (30:2) HERRE, jeg ophøjer dig, thi du bjærgede mig, lod ej mine Fjender glæde sig over mig;

1 A Psalm; a Song at the Dedication of the House. A Psalm of David.I will extol You, O Lord, for You have lifted me up,And have not let my enemies rejoice over me.

2 (30:3) HERRE min Gud, jeg råbte til dig, og du helbredte mig.

2 O Lord my God,I cried to You for help, and You healed me.

3 (30:4) Fra Dødsriget, HERRE, drog du min Sjæl, kaldte mig til Live af Gravens Dyb.

3 O Lord, You have brought up my soul from Sheol;You have kept me alive, that I would not go down to the pit.

4 (30:5) Lovsyng HERREN, I hans fromme, pris hans hellige Navn!

4 Sing praise to the Lord, you His godly ones,And give thanks to His holy name.

5 (30:6) Thi et Øjeblik varer hans Vrede, Livet igennem hans Nåde; om Aftenen gæster os Gråd, om Morgenen Frydesang.

5 For His anger is but for a moment,His favor is for a lifetime;Weeping may last for the night,But a shout of joy comes in the morning.

6 (30:7) Jeg tænkte i min Tryghed: "Jeg rokkes aldrig i Evighed!"

6 Now as for me, I said in my prosperity,“I will never be moved.”

7 (30:8) HERRE, i Nåde havde du fæstnet mit Bjerg; du skjulte dit Åsyn, jeg blev forfærdet.

7 O Lord, by Your favor You have made my mountain to stand strong;You hid Your face, I was dismayed.

8 (30:9) Jeg råbte, HERRE, til dig, og tryglende bad jeg til HERREN:

8 To You, O Lord, I called,And to the Lord I made supplication:

9 (30:10) "Hvad Vinding har du af mit Blod, af at jeg synker i Graven? Kan Støv mon takke dig, råbe din Trofasthed ud?

9 “What profit is there in my blood, if I go down to the pit?Will the dust praise You? Will it declare Your faithfulness?

10 (30:11) HERRE, hør og vær nådig, HERRE, kom mig til Hjælp!"

10 “Hear, O Lord, and be gracious to me;O Lord, be my helper.”

11 (30:12) Du vendte min Sorg til Dans, løste min Sørgedragt, hylled mig i Glæde,

11 You have turned for me my mourning into dancing;You have loosed my sackcloth and girded me with gladness,

12 (30:13) at min Ære skal prise dig uden Ophør. HERRE min Gud, jeg vil takke dig evigt! 

12 That my soul may sing praise to You and not be silent.O Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.
