Psalms 65
1 God, it is right/appropriate [for us] to praise you in Jerusalem, and to do what [we] have promised you that [we] would do,
Untuk pemimpin biduan. Mazmur Daud. Nyanyian. Bagi-Mulah puji-pujian di Sion, ya Allah; dan kepada-Mulah orang membayar nazar.
2 [because] you answer our prayers. People everywhere will come to you
Engkau yang mendengarkan doa. Kepada-Mulah datang semua yang hidup
3 because of the sins [that they have committed]. Our many sins are like a very heavy burden to us, but you forgive us.
karena bersalah. Bilamana pelanggaran-pelanggaran kami melebihi kekuatan kami, Engkaulah yang menghapuskannya.
4 You are pleased with those whom you have chosen to live close to your temple. We are happy with all the blessings that we receive from [worshiping in] your sacred temple.
Berbahagialah orang yang Engkau pilih dan yang Engkau suruh mendekat untuk diam di pelataran-Mu! Kiranya kami menjadi kenyang dengan segala yang baik di rumah-Mu, di bait-Mu yang kudus.
5 [God, when we pray to you], you answer us and save us by doing awesome deeds; you are the one who rescues us; people who live in very remote places on the earth, on the other side of the oceans, trust in you.
Dengan perbuatan-perbuatan yang dahsyat dan dengan keadilan Engkau menjawab kami, ya Allah yang menyelamatkan kami, Engkau, yang menjadi kepercayaan segala ujung bumi dan pulau-pulau yang jauh-jauh;
6 By your strength you put the mountains in their places, [showing that] you are very powerful.
Engkau, yang menegakkan gunung-gunung dengan kekuatan-Mu, sedang pinggang-Mu berikatkan keperkasaan;
7 You calm the seas when they roar, and you stop the waves from crashing [on the shore]; you [also] calm people when they (make a great uproar/shout angrily together).
Engkau, yang meredakan deru lautan, deru gelombang-gelombangnya dan kegemparan bangsa-bangsa!
8 People who live in very remote/distant places on the earth (are awed by/revere) you because of the miracles that you perform; because of what you do, people who live far to the west and far to the east shout joyfully.
Sebab itu orang-orang yang diam di ujung-ujung bumi takut kepada tanda-tanda mujizat-Mu; tempat terbitnya pagi dan petang Kaubuat bersorak-sorai.
9 You take care of the soil and send rain, causing many good things to grow; you fill the streams with water, and cause grain/crops to grow. That is what you have determined/said would happen.
Engkau mengindahkan tanah itu, mengaruniainya kelimpahan, dan membuatnya sangat kaya. Batang air Allah penuh air; Engkau menyediakan gandum bagi mereka. Ya, demikianlah Engkau menyediakannya:
10 You [send plenty of rain] on the fields that have been plowed, and you fill the furrows with water. With showers you soften the [hard clods/lumps of] soil, and you bless the soil by causing young plants to grow.
Engkau mengairi alur bajaknya, Engkau membasahi gumpalan-gumpalan tanahnya, dengan dirus hujan Engkau menggemburkannya; Engkau memberkati tumbuh-tumbuhannya.
11 Because you bless the soil, there are very good crops at harvest season; wherever you have gone [MTY], good crops are very abundant [IDM].
Engkau memahkotai tahun dengan kebaikan-Mu, jejak-Mu mengeluarkan lemak;
12 The pastures are full of flocks [of sheep and goats]; [it is as though] the hills are very joyful.
tanah-tanah padang gurun menitik, bukit-bukit berikatpinggangkan sorak-sorai;
13 The meadows are full of sheep and goats, and the valleys are full of grain; [it is as though] they [also] sing and shout joyfully.
padang-padang rumput berpakaikan kawanan kambing domba, lembah-lembah berselimutkan gandum, semuanya bersorak-sorai dan bernyanyi-nyanyi.
