< Psalms 105 >

1 Give thanks to YHWH—call on His Name, Make His acts known among the peoples.
Bersyukurlah kepada TUHAN, serukanlah nama-Nya, perkenalkanlah perbuatan-Nya di antara bangsa-bangsa!
2 Sing to Him—sing praise to Him, Meditate on all His wonders.
Bernyanyilah bagi-Nya, bermazmurlah bagi-Nya, percakapkanlah segala perbuatan-Nya yang ajaib!
3 Boast yourselves in His Holy Name, The heart of those seeking YHWH rejoices.
Bermegahlah di dalam nama-Nya yang kudus, biarlah bersukahati orang-orang yang mencari TUHAN!
4 Seek YHWH and His strength, Seek His face continually.
Carilah TUHAN dan kekuatan-Nya, carilah wajah-Nya selalu!
5 Remember His wonders that He did, His signs and the judgments of His mouth.
Ingatlah perbuatan-perbuatan ajaib yang dilakukan-Nya, mujizat-mujizat-Ny dan penghukuman-penghukuman yang diucapkan-Nya,
6 O seed of Abraham, His servant, O sons of Jacob, His chosen ones.
hai anak cucu Abraham, hamba-Nya, hai anak-anak Yakub, orang-orang pilihan-Nya!
7 He [is] our God YHWH, His judgments [are] in all the earth.
Dialah TUHAN, Allah kita, di seluruh bumi berlaku penghukuman-Nya.
8 He has remembered His covenant for all time, The word He commanded to one thousand generations,
Ia ingat untuk selama-lamanya akan perjanjian-Nya, firman yang diperintahkan-Nya kepada seribu angkatan,
9 That He has made with Abraham, And His oath to Isaac,
yang diikat-Nya dengan Abraham, dan akan sumpah-Nya kepada Ishak;
10 And establishes it to Jacob for a statute, To Israel—a perpetual covenant,
diadakan-Nya hal itu menjadi ketetapan bagi Yakub, menjadi perjanjian kekal bagi Israel,
11 Saying, “I give the land of Canaan to you, The portion of your inheritance,”
firman-Nya: "Kepadamu akan Kuberikan tanah Kanaan, sebagai milik pusaka yang ditentukan bagimu."
12 In their being few in number, But a few, and sojourners in it.
Ketika jumlah mereka tidak seberapa, sedikit saja, dan mereka orang-orang asing di sana,
13 And they go up and down, from nation to nation, From a kingdom to another people.
dan mengembara dari bangsa yang satu ke bangsa yang lain, dari kerajaan yang satu ke suku bangsa yang lain,
14 He has not permitted any to oppress them And He reproves kings for their sakes.
Ia tidak membiarkan seorangpun memeras mereka, raja-raja dihukum-Nya oleh karena mereka:
15 “Do not strike against My anointed, And do no evil to My prophets.”
"Jangan mengusik orang-orang yang Kuurapi, dan jangan berbuat jahat kepada nabi-nabi-Ku!"
16 And He calls a famine on the land, He has broken the whole staff of bread.
Ketika Ia mendatangkan kelaparan ke atas negeri itu, dan menghancurkan seluruh persediaan makanan,
17 He has sent a man before them, Joseph has been sold for a servant.
diutus-Nyalah seorang mendahului mereka: Yusuf, yang dijual menjadi budak.
18 They have afflicted his feet with chains, Iron has entered his soul,
Mereka mengimpit kakinya dengan belenggu, lehernya masuk ke dalam besi,
19 Until the time of the coming of His word The saying of YHWH has tried him.
sampai saat firman-Nya sudah genap, dan janji TUHAN membenarkannya.
20 The king has sent, and looses him, The ruler of the peoples, and draws him out.
Raja menyuruh melepaskannya, penguasa bangsa-bangsa membebaskannya.
21 He has made him lord of his house, And ruler over all his possessions.
Dijadikannya dia tuan atas istananya, dan kuasa atas segala harta kepunyaannya,
22 To bind his chiefs at his pleasure, And he makes his elderly wise.
untuk memberikan petunjuk kepada para pembesarnya sekehendak hatinya dan mengajarkan hikmat kepada para tua-tuanya.
23 And Israel comes into Egypt, And Jacob has sojourned in the land of Ham.
Demikianlah Israel datang ke Mesir, dan Yakub tinggal sebagai orang asing di tanah Ham.
24 And He makes His people very fruitful, And makes it mightier than its adversaries.
TUHAN membuat umat-Nya sangat subur, dan menjadikannya lebih kuat dari pada para lawannya;
25 He turned their heart to hate His people, To conspire against His servants.
diubah-Nya hati mereka untuk membenci umat-Nya, untuk memperdayakan hamba-hamba-Nya.
26 He has sent His servant Moses, Aaron whom He had fixed on.
Diutus-Nya Musa, hamba-Nya, dan Harun yang telah dipilih-Nya;
27 They have set among them the matters of His signs, And wonders in the land of Ham.
keduanya mengadakan tanda-tanda-Nya di antara mereka, dan mujizat-mujizat di tanah Ham:
28 He has sent darkness, and it is dark, And they have not provoked His word.
dikirim-Nya kegelapan, maka hari menjadi gelap, tetapi mereka memberontak terhadap firman-Nya;
29 He has turned their waters to blood, And puts their fish to death.
diubah-Nya air mereka menjadi darah, dan dimatikan-Nya ikan-ikan mereka.
30 Their land has teemed [with] frogs, In the inner chambers of their kings.
Katak-katak berkeriapan di negeri mereka, bahkan di kamar-kamar raja mereka;
31 He has commanded, and the beetle comes, Lice into all their border.
Ia berfirman, maka datanglah lalat pikat, dan nyamuk-nyamuk di seluruh daerah mereka;
32 He has made their showers hail, A flaming fire [is] in their land.
dicurahkan-Nya hujan es ganti hujan mereka, dan api yang menyala-nyala di negeri mereka;
33 And He strikes their vine and their fig, And shatters the trees of their border.
dirubuhkan-Nya pohon anggur dan pohon ara mereka, dan ditumbangkan-Nya pohon di daerah mereka;
34 He has commanded, and the locust comes, And the cankerworm—innumerable,
Ia berfirman, maka datanglah belalang dan belalang pelompat tidak terbilang banyaknya,
35 And it consumes every herb in their land, And it consumes the fruit of their ground.
yang memakan segala tumbuh-tumbuhan di negeri mereka, dan memakan hasil tanah mereka;
36 And He strikes every firstborn in their land, The first-fruit of all their strength,
dibunuh-Nya semua anak sulung di negeri mereka, mula segala kegagahan mereka:
37 And brings them out with silver and gold, And there is not a feeble one in its tribes.
Dituntun-Nya mereka keluar membawa perak dan emas, dan di antara suku-suku mereka tidak ada yang tergelincir.
38 Egypt has rejoiced in their going forth, For their fear had fallen on them.
Orang Mesir bersukacita, ketika mereka keluar, sebab orang-orang Mesir itu ditimpa ketakutan terhadap mereka.
39 He has spread a cloud for a covering, And fire to enlighten the night.
Dibentangkan-Nya awan menjadi tudung, dan api untuk menerangi malam.
40 They have asked, and He brings quails, And satisfies them [with] bread of the heavens.
Mereka meminta, maka didatangkan-Nya burung puyuh, dan dengan roti dari langit dikenyangkan-Nya mereka.
41 He has opened a rock, and waters flow, They have gone on in dry places—a river.
Dibuka-Nya gunung batu, maka terpancarlah air, lalu mengalir di padang-padang kering seperti sungai;
42 For He has remembered His holy word, With His servant Abraham,
sebab Ia ingat akan firman-Nya yang kudus, akan Abraham, hamba-Nya.
43 And He brings forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with singing.
Dituntun-Nya umat-Nya keluar dengan kegirangan dan orang-orang pilihan-Nya dengan sorak-sorai.
44 And He gives to them the lands of nations, And they possess the labor of peoples,
Diberikan-Nya kepada mereka negeri-negeri bangsa-bangsa, sehingga mereka memiliki hasil jerih payah suku-suku bangsa,
45 That they may observe His statutes, And may keep His laws. Praise YAH!
agar supaya mereka tetap mengikuti ketetapan-Nya, dan memegang segala pengajaran-Nya. Haleluya!
