< Psalms 97 >
1 The LORD reigns. Let the earth rejoice. Let the multitude of islands be glad.
耶和华作王!愿地快乐! 愿众海岛欢喜!
2 Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
密云和幽暗在他的四围; 公义和公平是他宝座的根基。
3 A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
有烈火在他前头行, 烧灭他四围的敌人。
4 His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
他的闪电光照世界, 大地看见便震动。
5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
诸山见耶和华的面, 就是全地之主的面,便消化如蜡。
6 The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
诸天表明他的公义; 万民看见他的荣耀。
7 Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods.
愿一切事奉雕刻的偶像、 靠虚无之神自夸的,都蒙羞愧。 万神哪,你们都当拜他。
8 Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced, because of your judgments, LORD.
耶和华啊,锡安听见你的判断就欢喜; 犹大的城邑也都快乐。
9 For you, LORD, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
因为你—耶和华至高,超乎全地; 你被尊崇,远超万神之上。
10 You who love the LORD, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his faithful ones. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
你们爱耶和华的,都当恨恶罪恶; 他保护圣民的性命, 搭救他们脱离恶人的手。
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
散布亮光是为义人; 预备喜乐是为正直人。
12 Be glad in the LORD, you righteous people. Give thanks to his holy Name.
你们义人当靠耶和华欢喜, 称谢他可记念的圣名。
