Psalms 97

1 The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad.

Gospod kraljuje, radúj se zemlja, veselé se naj pokrajine premnoge.

2 Clouds and darkness are round about Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.

Oblaki in temà ga obdajajo; pravica in sodba kraj njegovega prestola.

3 A fire goeth before Him, and burneth up His adversaries round about.

Ogenj hodi pred njim in požiga okrog sovražnike njegove.

4 His lightnings lighted up the world; the earth saw, and trembled.

Bliski razsvetljujejo vesoljni svet njegov, vidi in trese se zemlja.

5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

Goré se topé kakor vosek vpričo Gospoda, vpričo vse zemlje gospodarja.

6 The heavens declared His righteousness, and all the peoples saw His glory.

Nebesa oznanjajo pravico njegovo; tako da vidijo vsa ljudstva čast njegovo.

7 Ashamed be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of things of nought; bow down to Him, all ye gods.

Osramoté se naj vsi, ki se ponašajo z maliki; klanjajo naj se mu vsi angeli.

8 Zion heard and was glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoiced; because of Thy judgments, O LORD.

Čuje in veseli se naj Sijon, in radujejo se hčere Judovske, zavoljo sodeb tvojih, Gospod.

9 For Thou, LORD, art most high above all the earth; Thou art exalted far above all gods.

Ti namreč si Gospod, vzvišen nad vso zemljo; silno povišan si nad vse angele.

10 O ye that love the LORD, hate evil; He preserveth the souls of His saints; He delivered them out of the hand of the wicked.

Kateri ljubite Gospoda, sovražite húdo; duše svojih, katerim izkazuje milost, hrani, iz rok krivičnih jih otima.

11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

Luč se je rodila pravičnemu, in poštenim v srci radost.

12 Be glad in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks to His holy name.

Veselite se, pravični v Gospodu, in slavite spomin svetosti njegove.
