< Mazmur 97 >

1 TUHAN adalah Raja! Hendaklah bumi bergembira, dan pulau-pulau bersukacita.
YHWH has reigned, The earth is joyful, many islands rejoice.
2 Ia dikelilingi awan dan kegelapan; keadilan dan hukum adalah azas pemerintahan-Nya.
Cloud and darkness [are] around Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.
3 Api menjalar di hadapan-Nya, menghanguskan musuh di sekeliling-Nya.
Fire goes before Him, And burns around His adversaries.
4 Kilatnya menerangi dunia, bumi gemetar melihat-Nya.
His lightnings have lightened the world, The earth has seen, and is pained.
5 Gunung-gunung meleleh seperti lilin di hadapan TUHAN, di hadapan TUHAN, penguasa seluruh bumi.
Hills, like wax, melted before YHWH, Before the Lord of all the earth.
6 Langit mewartakan keadilan-Nya, dan semua bangsa melihat kemuliaan-Nya.
The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His glory.
7 Semua orang yang menyembah berhala akan dipermalukan, yang membanggakan barang-barang yang tidak berguna; semua dewa akan sujud di hadapan TUHAN.
All servants of a carved image are ashamed, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to Him, all you gods.
8 Penduduk Sion dan kota-kota Yehuda senang ketika mendengar keputusan TUHAN.
Zion has heard and rejoices, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Your judgments, O YHWH.
9 Sebab Engkau, ya TUHAN, penguasa seluruh bumi; Engkau agung melebihi segala dewa.
For You, YHWH, [are] Most High over all the earth, You have been exalted greatly over all gods.
10 Hai kamu yang mencintai TUHAN, bencilah kejahatan! Sebab TUHAN melindungi hidup umat-Nya, Ia membebaskan mereka dari kuasa orang durhaka.
You who love YHWH, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
11 Terang sudah terbit bagi orang yang tulus hati, dan sukacita untuk orang yang jujur.
Light [is] sown for the righteous, And joy for the upright of heart.
12 Bergembiralah, hai orang-orang yang tulus hati karena apa yang telah dilakukan TUHAN, dan bersyukurlah kepada Allah yang suci.
Rejoice, you righteous, in YHWH, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness!
