Psalms 97

1 This is to David, when his land was restored to him. The Lord has reigned, let the earth exult. Let the many islands rejoice.

Gospod kraljuje, naj se zemlja veseli, naj bo množica otokov vesela le-tega.

2 Clouds and mist are all around him. Justice and judgment are corrections from his throne.

Oblaki in tema so okoli njega. Pravičnost in sodba sta prebivališče njegovega prestola.

3 A fire will precede him, and it will enflame his enemies all around.

Ogenj gre pred njim in naokrog požiga njegove sovražnike.

4 His lightnings have enlightened the whole world. The earth saw, and it was shaken.

Njegovi bliski so razsvetlili zemeljski [krog]; zemlja je videla in trepetala.

5 The mountains flowed like wax before the face of the Lord, before the face of the Lord of all the earth.

Hribi so se ob Gospodovi prisotnosti topili kakor vosek, ob prisotnosti Gospoda celotne zemlje.

6 The heavens announced his justice, and all peoples saw his glory.

Nebesa oznanjujejo njegovo pravičnost in vsa ljudstva vidijo njegovo slavo.

7 May all those who adore graven images be confounded, along with those who glory in their false images. All you his Angels: Adore him.

Zbegani so vsi tisti, ki služijo rezanim podobam, ki se bahajo z maliki; obožujte ga, vsi vi bogovi.

8 Zion heard, and was glad. And the daughters of Judah exulted because of your judgments, O Lord.

Sion je slišal in je bil vesel in judovske hčere so se veselile zaradi tvojih sodb, oh Gospod.

9 For you are the Most High Lord over all the earth. You are greatly exalted above all gods.

Kajti ti, Gospod, si dvignjen nad vso zemljo. Zelo si vzvišen nad vsemi bogovi.

10 You who love the Lord: hate evil. The Lord watches over the souls of his holy ones. He will free them from the hand of the sinner.

Vi, ki ljubite Gospoda, sovražite zlo. On varuje duše svojih svetih; osvobaja jih iz roke zlobnega.

11 The light has risen for the just, and joy for the upright of heart.

Svetloba je posejana za pravičnega in veselje za iskrenega v srcu.

12 Rejoice in the Lord, you just ones, and confess to the memory of his sanctuary.

Veselite se v Gospodu, vi pravični in zahvaljujte se pri spominjanju njegove svetosti.
