Psalms 97
1 The LORD reigns; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
TUHAN adalah Raja! Biarlah bumi bersorak-sorak, biarlah banyak pulau bersukacita!
2 Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.
Awan dan kekelaman ada sekeliling Dia, keadilan dan hukum adalah tumpuan takhta-Nya.
3 A fire goes before him, and burns up his enemies round about.
Api menjalar di hadapan-Nya, dan menghanguskan para lawan-Nya sekeliling.
4 His lightning enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
Kilat-kilat-Nya menerangi dunia, bumi melihatnya dan gemetar.
5 The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Gunung-gunung luluh seperti lilin di hadapan TUHAN, di hadapan Tuhan seluruh bumi.
6 The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
Langit memberitakan keadilan-Nya, dan segala bangsa melihat kemuliaan-Nya.
7 Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all you gods.
Semua orang yang beribadah kepada patung akan mendapat malu, orang yang memegahkan diri karena berhala-berhala; segala allah sujud menyembah kepada-Nya.
8 Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of your judgments, O LORD.
Sion mendengarnya dan bersukacita, puteri-puteri Yehuda bersorak-sorak, oleh karena penghukuman-Mu, ya TUHAN.
9 For you, LORD, are high above all the earth: you are exalted far above all gods.
Sebab Engkaulah, ya TUHAN, Yang Mahatinggi di atas seluruh bumi, Engkau sangat dimuliakan di atas segala allah.
10 You that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserves the souls of his saints; he delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
Hai orang-orang yang mengasihi TUHAN, bencilah kejahatan! Dia, yang memelihara nyawa orang-orang yang dikasihi-Nya, akan melepaskan mereka dari tangan orang-orang fasik.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Terang sudah terbit bagi orang benar, dan sukacita bagi orang-orang yang tulus hati.
12 Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
Bersukacitalah karena TUHAN, hai orang-orang benar, dan nyanyikanlah syukur bagi nama-Nya yang kudus.
