Psalms 97
1 Yahweh is the king! I want [everyone on] the earth to be glad/happy, and the [people who live on] the islands in the oceans to [also] rejoice [about that!]
परमप्रभुले राज्य गर्नुहुन्छ । पृथ्वी आनन्दित होस् । धेरैवटा समुद्री किनार खुसी होऊन् ।
2 There are very dark clouds around him [to hide him]; he rules [MTY] righteously/justly and fairly.
बादल र अन्धकारले उहाँलाई घेर्छन् । धार्मिकता र न्याय उहाँको सिंहासनको जग हो ।
3 He [sends] fire in front of him, and he completely burns all his enemies in that fire.
आगो उहाँको अगिअगि जान्छ र उहाँका वैरीहरूलाई हरेकतिर भष्म पार्छ ।
4 All around the world he causes lightning to flash; [people on] the earth see it, and it causes them to [be afraid and] tremble.
उहाँको बिजुलीको चमकले संसारलाई उज्यालो बनाउँछ । पृथ्वीले देख्छ र थरथर काम्छ ।
5 The mountains/hills melt like wax in front of Yahweh, the one who is the Lord, [who rules] over all the earth.
परमप्रभु, सारा पृथ्वीको परमप्रभुको सामु पहाडहरू मैनझैं पग्लिन्छन् ।
6 The [angels in] [MTY] heaven proclaim that he acts righteously, and all the people-groups see his glory.
आकाशले उहाँको न्यायको घोषणा गर्छ र सबै जातिले उहाँको महिमा देख्छन् ।
7 Everyone who worships idols should be ashamed; all those who are proud of their false gods [should realize that their gods are useless], [It is as though] all those gods bow down [to worship] Yahweh.
कुँदेका आकृतिहरू पुज्नेहरू, व्यर्थका मूर्तिहरूमा घमण्ड गर्नेहरू सबै जना लाजमा पर्नेछन् । हे सबै देवता हो, उहाँमा घोप्टो पर!
8 [The people] [MTY] of Jerusalem hear [about Yahweh] and are glad/happy, and [people in the other] [MTY] cities in Judah [also] rejoice, because Yahweh judges [and punishes wicked people].
हे परमप्रभु, तपाईंको धार्मिक आदेशहरूका कारणले सियोनले सुन्यो र खुसी भयो, अनि यहूदाका नगरहरू आनन्दित भए ।
9 Yahweh is the supreme [king] over all the earth; he has very great power, and all the [other] gods have no power at all.
हे परमप्रभु, तपाईं सारा पृथ्वीभन्दा उच्च हुनुहुन्छ । तपाईं सबै देवताभन्दा उच्च हुनुहुन्छ ।
10 Yahweh loves those who hate what [people do that] is evil; he protects the lives of his people, and he rescues them when the wicked [people try to harm them].
तिमीहरू जसले परमप्रभुलाई प्रेम गर्छौ, खराबीलाई घृणा गर । उहाँले आफ्ना सन्तहरूका जीवन रक्षा गर्नुहुन्छ र उहाँले तिनीहरूलाई दुष्टको हातबाट बाहिर निकाल्नुहुन्छ ।
11 His light shines on righteous [people]; he causes those who are righteous to rejoice.
धार्मीहरूका निम्ति ज्योति प्रकट हुन्छ र इमानदार हृदय भएकाहरूका निम्ति खुसी आउँछ ।
12 You righteous [people], rejoice about what Yahweh [has done], and thank him, our holy God!
ए धर्मीहरू हो, परमप्रभुमा खुसी होओ । अनि तिमीहरूले उहाँको पवित्रता सम्झिंदा धन्यवाद देओ ।
