Psalms 97

1 Yahweh, hath become king, Let the earth exult, Let the multitude of coastlands rejoice.

TUHAN adalah Raja! Biarlah bumi bersorak-sorak, biarlah banyak pulau bersukacita!

2 Clouds and thick darkness, are round about him, Righteousness and justice, are the establishing of his throne.

Awan dan kekelaman ada sekeliling Dia, keadilan dan hukum adalah tumpuan takhta-Nya.

3 Fire, before him, proceedeth, That it may consume, round about, his adversaries.

Api menjalar di hadapan-Nya, dan menghanguskan para lawan-Nya sekeliling.

4 His lightnings, have illumined, the world, The earth, hath seen, and hath trembled;

Kilat-kilat-Nya menerangi dunia, bumi melihatnya dan gemetar.

5 The mountains, like wax, have melted, At the presence of Yahweh, At the presence, of the Lord of all the earth.

Gunung-gunung luluh seperti lilin di hadapan TUHAN, di hadapan Tuhan seluruh bumi.

6 The heavens, have declared, his righteousness, —And all the peoples, have seen, his glory.

Langit memberitakan keadilan-Nya, dan segala bangsa melihat kemuliaan-Nya.

7 Let all who serve an image, be ashamed, They who boast themselves in things of nought, Bow down unto him, all ye 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, hath heard and rejoiced, And the daughters of Judah, have exulted, Because of thy righteous decisions, O Yahweh:

Sion mendengarnya dan bersukacita, puteri-puteri Yehuda bersorak-sorak, oleh karena penghukuman-Mu, ya TUHAN.

9 For, thou, Yahweh, art Most High over all the earth, Greatly hast thou exalted thyself above all gods.

Sebab Engkaulah, ya TUHAN, Yang Mahatinggi di atas seluruh bumi, Engkau sangat dimuliakan di atas segala allah.

10 Ye lovers of Yahweh! be haters of wrong, —He preserveth the lives of his men of lovingkindness, From the hand of the lawless, will he rescue them.

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 one, And, for the upright in heart, rejoicing:

Terang sudah terbit bagi orang benar, dan sukacita bagi orang-orang yang tulus hati.

12 Rejoice, ye righteous, in Yahweh, And give ye thanks, at the mention of his holiness.

Bersukacitalah karena TUHAN, hai orang-orang benar, dan nyanyikanlah syukur bagi nama-Nya yang kudus.
