Psalms 97

1 The Lord reigns! Let the earth be glad, and distant lands be full of joy!

ヱホバは統治たまふ 全地はたのしみ多くの島々はよろこぶべし

2 He is surrounded by clouds and thick darkness; his throne is founded on justice and right.

雲とくらきとはそり周環にあり 義と公平とはその寳座のもとゐなり

3 Flames proceed him, burning up his enemies on every side.

火ありそのみまへにすすみ その四周の敵をやきつくす

4 His flashes of lightning light up the world; the earth watches and trembles.

ヱホバのいなびかりは世界をてらす 地これを見てふるへり

5 The mountains melt like wax in the presence of the Lord, before the Lord of all the earth.

もろもろの山はヱホバのみまへ全地の主のみまへにて蝋のごとくとけぬ

6 The heavens proclaim his goodness; everyone sees his glory.

もろもろの天はその義をあらはし よろづの民はその榮光をみたり

7 All those who worship idols are humiliated, those who are proud of their idols—for all “gods” bow down before him.

すべてきざめる像につかへ虚しきものによりてみづから誇るものは恥辱をうくべし もろもろの神よみなヱホバをふしをがめ

8 Jerusalem hears this and celebrates; all the towns of Judah are happy because of your judgments, Lord.

ヱホバよなんぢの審判のゆゑによりシオンはききてよろこびユダの女輩はみな樂しめり

9 For you, Lord, are the highest of all, ruling over the whole earth; your position is far above any other god.

ヱホバよなんぢ全地のうへにましまして至高く なんぢもろもろの神のうへにましまして至貴とし

10 You who love the Lord, hate evil! He protects the lives of those who are faithful to him, and saves them from the power of wicked people.

ヱホバを愛しむものよ惡をにくめ ヱホバはその聖徒のたましひをまもり 之をあしきものの手より助けいだしたまふ

11 Light shines on those who do good, giving joy to those who live right.

光はただしき人のためにまかれ 欣喜はこころ直きもののために播れたり

12 Be happy in the Lord, you who do right, and thank him for his holy nature!

義人よヱホバにより喜べ そのきよき名に感謝せよ
