< Psalms 97 >
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
TUHAN adalah Raja! Biarlah bumi bersorak-sorak, biarlah banyak pulau bersukacita!
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
Awan dan kekelaman ada sekeliling Dia, keadilan dan hukum adalah tumpuan takhta-Nya.
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
Api menjalar di hadapan-Nya, dan menghanguskan para lawan-Nya sekeliling.
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
Kilat-kilat-Nya menerangi dunia, bumi melihatnya dan gemetar.
5 The mountains 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 have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
Langit memberitakan keadilan-Nya, dan segala bangsa melihat kemuliaan-Nya.
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all you his angels.
Semua orang yang beribadah kepada patung akan mendapat malu, orang yang memegahkan diri karena berhala-berhala; segala allah sujud menyembah kepada-Nya.
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of your judgments, O Lord.
Sion mendengarnya dan bersukacita, puteri-puteri Yehuda bersorak-sorak, oleh karena penghukuman-Mu, ya TUHAN.
9 For you are Lord most high over all the earth; you are greatly exalted 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; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
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 sprung up 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 for a remembrance of his holiness.
Bersukacitalah karena TUHAN, hai orang-orang benar, dan nyanyikanlah syukur bagi nama-Nya yang kudus.
