Mazmur 97

1 TUHAN adalah Raja! Hendaklah bumi bergembira, dan pulau-pulau bersukacita.

The LORD reigns. Let the earth rejoice. Let the multitude of islands be glad.

2 Ia dikelilingi awan dan kegelapan; keadilan dan hukum adalah azas pemerintahan-Nya.

Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

3 Api menjalar di hadapan-Nya, menghanguskan musuh di sekeliling-Nya.

A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.

4 Kilatnya menerangi dunia, bumi gemetar melihat-Nya.

His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.

5 Gunung-gunung meleleh seperti lilin di hadapan TUHAN, di hadapan TUHAN, penguasa seluruh bumi.

The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

6 Langit mewartakan keadilan-Nya, dan semua bangsa melihat kemuliaan-Nya.

The heavens declare his righteousness. 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.

Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods.

8 Penduduk Sion dan kota-kota Yehuda senang ketika mendengar keputusan TUHAN.

Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced, because of your judgments, LORD.

9 Sebab Engkau, ya TUHAN, penguasa seluruh bumi; Engkau agung melebihi segala dewa.

For you, LORD, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above 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 the LORD, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his faithful ones. He delivers them out of 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 gladness for the upright in heart.

12 Bergembiralah, hai orang-orang yang tulus hati karena apa yang telah dilakukan TUHAN, dan bersyukurlah kepada Allah yang suci.

Be glad in the LORD, you righteous people. Give thanks to his holy Name.
