Bibelen på hverdagsdansk

1 Beklag dig bare, så meget du vil, der er ingen, der hører dit råb. Tror du, englene vil tale din sag? 2 Vrede kan tage livet af en tåbe, deres bitterhed kan koste dem livet. 3 En tåbe kan klare sig godt for en tid, men pludselig ligger alt i ruiner. 4 Hans familie er prisgivet andres begær, der er ingen til at forsvare dem i retten. 5 De sultne kommer og stjæler hans høst, de lader intet tilbage på marken, begærlige folk overtager hans ejendele. 6 Ingen bliver straffet uden grund, ulykker kommer ikke af sig selv. 7 Nej, årsagen findes i mennesket selv, der kommer jo kun røg, hvor der er ild. 8 Derfor må du bekende din synd for Gud og lade ham være din dommer. 9 Hans visdom og storhed er grænseløs, hans undere kan man ikke tælle. 10 Han sender regn på jorden og vander både haver og marker. 11 Han rejser de ydmyge op og bringer de forliste i sikkerhed. 12 Men de listige spænder han ben for, så der intet kommer ud af deres onde planer. 13 Han fanger de kloge i deres egen snedighed, så deres kunstfærdige planer går i vasken. 14 De famler sig frem som i blinde, de kan ikke finde vej selv ved højlys dag. 15 Men de magtesløse redder han fra de stærkes kløer, han frelser dem fra de magtfuldes intriger. 16 Han giver de svage nyt håb og standser uretfærdigheden imod dem. 17 Det er en velsignelse at blive irettesat af Gud! Vær taknemmelig, når den Almægtige straffer dig! 18 For selv om han slår og sårer, så forbinder han også og helbreder. 19 Gang på gang beskytter han dig, både seks og syv gange redder han dig. 20 Under hungersnød redder han dig fra sultedøden, under krig redder han dig fra sværdets hug. 21 Han beskytter dig mod ondskabsfuld sladder og redder dig fra voldelige overfald. 22 Du kan le ad ulykker så vel som hungersnød, selv de vilde dyr behøver du ikke at frygte. 23 Markens sten skader ikke din plov, du kan passe din jord i fred for vilde dyr. 24 Du kan bo i tryghed i dit hus uden frygt for at miste dine ejendele. 25 Dine efterkommere bliver mange, så frodige som det grønne græs. 26 Som korn, der modnes, før det høstes, skal du nå en moden alder, før du dør. 27 Jeg har talt ud fra min egen erfaring, så hør efter og følg mit råd.”

2 Surely vexation kills the fool, and jealousy slays the simple. 3 I have seen the fool taking root, but suddenly I cursed his dwelling.

5 The hungry eat his harvest, and he takes it even out of thorns,^[1] and the thirsty pant^[2] after his^[3] wealth. 6 For affliction does not come from the dust, nor does trouble sprout from the ground, 7 but man is born to trouble as the sparks fly upward.
