Psalms 147

1 Praise YAH! For [it is] good to praise our God, For pleasant—lovely [is] praise.

Haleluya! Sungguh, bermazmur bagi Allah kita itu baik, bahkan indah, dan layaklah memuji-muji itu.

2 YHWH [is] building Jerusalem, He gathers the driven away of Israel.

TUHAN membangun Yerusalem, Ia mengumpulkan orang-orang Israel yang tercerai-berai;

3 Who is giving healing to the broken of heart, And is binding up their griefs.

Ia menyembuhkan orang-orang yang patah hati dan membalut luka-luka mereka;

4 Appointing the number of the stars, He gives names to all of them.

Ia menentukan jumlah bintang-bintang dan menyebut nama-nama semuanya.

5 Our Lord [is] great, and abundant in power, There is no narration of His understanding.

Besarlah Tuhan kita dan berlimpah kekuatan, kebijaksanaan-Nya tak terhingga.

6 YHWH is causing the meek to stand, Making the wicked low to the earth.

TUHAN menegakkan kembali orang-orang yang tertindas, tetapi merendahkan orang-orang fasik sampai ke bumi.

7 Answer to YHWH with thanksgiving, Sing to our God with a harp.

Bernyanyilah bagi TUHAN dengan nyanyian syukur, bermazmurlah bagi Allah kita dengan kecapi!

8 Who is covering the heavens with clouds, Who is preparing rain for the earth, Who is causing grass to spring up [on] mountains,

Dia, yang menutupi langit dengan awan-awan, yang menyediakan hujan bagi bumi, yang membuat gunung-gunung menumbuhkan rumput.

9 Giving to the beast its food, To the young of the ravens that call.

Dia, yang memberi makanan kepada hewan, kepada anak-anak burung gagak, yang memanggil-manggil.

10 He does not delight in the might of the horse, He is not pleased in the legs of a man.

Ia tidak suka kepada kegagahan kuda, Ia tidak senang kepada kaki laki-laki;

11 YHWH is pleased with those fearing Him, With those waiting for His kindness.

TUHAN senang kepada orang-orang yang takut akan Dia, kepada orang-orang yang berharap akan kasih setia-Nya.

12 Glorify, O Jerusalem, YHWH, Praise your God, O Zion.

Megahkanlah TUHAN, hai Yerusalem, pujilah Allahmu, hai Sion!

13 For He strengthened the bars of your gates, He has blessed your sons in your midst.

Sebab Ia meneguhkan palang pintu gerbangmu, dan memberkati anak-anakmu di antaramu.

14 Who is making your border peace, He satisfies you [with] the fat of wheat.

Ia memberikan kesejahteraan kepada daerahmu dan mengenyangkan engkau dengan gandum yang terbaik.

15 Who is sending forth His saying [on] earth, His word runs very speedily.

Ia menyampaikan perintah-Nya ke bumi; dengan segera firman-Nya berlari.

16 Who is giving snow like wool, He scatters hoarfrost as ashes.

Ia menurunkan salju seperti bulu domba dan menghamburkan embun beku seperti abu.

17 Casting forth His ice like morsels, Who stands before His cold?

Ia melemparkan air batu seperti pecahan-pecahan. Siapakah yang tahan berdiri menghadapi dingin-Nya?

18 He sends forth His word and melts them, He causes His wind to blow—the waters flow.

Ia menyampaikan firman-Nya, lalu mencairkan semuanya, Ia meniupkan angin-Nya, maka air mengalir.

19 Declaring His words to Jacob, His statutes and His judgments to Israel.

Ia memberitakan firman-Nya kepada Yakub, ketetapan-ketetapan-Nya dan hukum-hukum-Nya kepada Israel.

20 He has not done so to any nation, As for judgments, they have not known them. Praise YAH!

Ia tidak berbuat demikian kepada segala bangsa, dan hukum-hukum-Nya tidak mereka kenal. Haleluya!
