Psalm 52 | Bibelen på hverdagsdansk

Guds straf over en ond „helt”

1 Til korlederen: En visdomssang af David, dengang Edomitten Doeg fortalte Saul, at David havde søgt hjælp hos Ahimelek.* 3 Hvorfor prale af din ondskab, du stærke mand? Gud er trofast, og han beskytter mig dag efter dag. 4 Hele tiden lægger du onde planer. Dine ord er dødbringende som skarpe knive. 5 Du foretrækker ondt frem for godt, løgn frem for sandhed. 6 Du elsker at sige noget, som kan skade andre. Hvor er du fuld af falskhed. 7 Men Gud vil gøre det af med dig, rive dig bort fra dit hjem, rykke dig op fra de levendes land. 8 Når de gudfrygtige ser det, vil de gyse, de vil håne dig og sige: 9 „Sådan går det dem, der ikke regner med Gud, men stoler på deres rigdom og praler af deres ondskab.” 10 Men jeg er som et frodigt oliventræ, der trives i Herrens hus. Jeg stoler altid på hans trofasthed og nåde. 11 Herre, jeg vil takke dig for alt, hvad du gør for mig, jeg vil forkynde din godhed i dine tjeneres nærvær.

The Steadfast Love of God Endures

1 To the choirmaster. A Maskil* of David, when Doeg, the Edomite, came and told Saul, “David has come to the house of Ahimelech.” Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The steadfast love of God endures all the day. 2 Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit. 3 You love evil more than good, and lying more than speaking what is right. 4 You love all words that devour, O deceitful tongue. 5 But God will break you down forever; he will snatch and tear you from your tent; he will uproot you from the land of the living. 6 The righteous shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying, 7 “See the man who would not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his riches and sought refuge in his own destruction!”* 8 But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God forever and ever. 9 I will thank you forever, because you have done it. I will wait for your name, for it is good, in the presence of the godly.
