My Music - Psalm 28
Danish   Introduction | Index | About me | Motets
Composed: 2004
First performance:

This is perhaps the most difficult work I have created, but I am sure a capable choir can make an overwhelming performance of it.

If you wish to perform, publish, or just study this work, please send me a note.

OriginalTranslation

Til dig, Herre  - Synth

Til dig, Herre, råber jeg,
min klippe, vær ikke døv for mig,
vær ikke tavs imod mig,
så jeg bliver som de, der gik i graven.
Hør min tryglen,
når jeg råber til dig om hjælp,
når jeg løfter mine hænder
mod dit tempels Allerhelligste.

Sl 28,1-2

Psalm 28

Unto thee will I cry, O LORD
my rock; be not silent to me:
lest, if thou be silent to me,
I become like them that go down into the pit.
Hear the voice of my supplications,
when I cry unto thee,
when I lift up my hands
toward thy holy oracle.

KJV Psalms 28,1-2

Giv mig ikke hen  - Synth

Riv mig ikke bort sammen med ugudelige,
med de forbrydere,
der taler med hinanden som venner,
men har hjertet fuldt af ondskab.
Giv dem efter deres gerninger
og efter deres onde handlinger,
gengæld dem deres hænders værk,
og giv dem løn som forskyldt,
for de giver ikke agt på Herrens gerninger
og hans hænders værk.
Han skal rive dem ned
og ikke bygge dem op!

Sl 28,3-5

Psalm 28

Draw me not away with the wicked,
and with the workers of iniquity,
which speak peace to their neighbours,
but mischief is in their hearts.
Give them according to their deeds,
and according to the wickedness of their endeavours:
give them after the work of their hands;
render to them their desert.
Because they regard not the works of the LORD,
nor the operation of his hands,
he shall destroy them,
and not build them up.

KJV Psalms 28,3-5

Lovet være Herren  - Synth

Lovet være Herren,
for han har hørt min tryglen.
Herren, min styrke, mit skjold,
på ham stoler mit hjerte.
Da jeg fik hjælp, jublede mit hjerte,
jeg takker ham med sang.
Herren er styrke for sit folk,
han er værn og redning for sin salvede.
Frels dit folk,
og velsign din ejendom,
vogt dem, og tag dig af dem til evig tid.

Sl 28,6-9

Psalm 28

Blessed be the LORD,
because he hath heard the voice of my supplications.
The LORD is my strength and my shield;
my heart trusted in him,
and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth;
and with my song will I praise him.
The LORD is their strength,
and he is the saving strength of his anointed.
Save thy people,
and bless thine inheritance:
feed them also, and lift them up for ever.

KJV Psalms 28,6-9
