< Mazmur 103 >
1 Dari Daud. Pujilah TUHAN, hai jiwaku! Pujilah nama-Nya yang kudus, hai segenap batinku!
Praise Adonai, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name!
2 Pujilah TUHAN, hai jiwaku, dan janganlah lupakan segala kebaikan-Nya!
Praise Adonai, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits;
3 Dia yang mengampuni segala kesalahanmu, yang menyembuhkan segala penyakitmu,
who forgives all your depravities (moral evils); who heals all your diseases;
4 Dia yang menebus hidupmu dari lobang kubur, yang memahkotai engkau dengan kasih setia dan rahmat,
who redeems your life from destruction; who crowns you with chesed ·loving-kindness· and tender rachamim ·merciful loves·;
5 Dia yang memuaskan hasratmu dengan kebaikan, sehingga masa mudamu menjadi baru seperti pada burung rajawali.
who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.
6 TUHAN menjalankan keadilan dan hukum bagi segala orang yang diperas.
Adonai executes righteous acts, and mishpat ·justice· for all who are oppressed.
7 Ia telah memperkenalkan jalan-jalan-Nya kepada Musa, perbuatan-perbuatan-kepada orang Israel.
He made known his ways to Moses [Drawn out], his deeds to the children of Israel [God prevails].
8 TUHAN adalah penyayang dan pengasih, panjang sabar dan berlimpah kasih setia.
Adonai is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abundant in chesed ·loving-kindness·.
9 Tidak selalu Ia menuntut, dan tidak untuk selama-lamanya Ia mendendam.
He will not always accuse; neither will he stay angry forever.
10 Tidak dilakukan-Nya kepada kita setimpal dengan dosa kita, dan tidak dibalas-Nya kepada kita setimpal dengan kesalahan kita,
He has not dealt with us according to our crimes deserving peanlty, sins ·missing the goal·, nor repaid us for our depravities (moral evils).
11 tetapi setinggi langit di atas bumi, demikian besarnya kasih setia-Nya atas orang-orang yang takut akan Dia;
For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his chesed ·loving-kindness· toward those who fear him.
12 sejauh timur dari barat, demikian dijauhkan-Nya dari pada kita pelanggaran kita.
As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our rebellious breaches of relationships from us.
13 Seperti bapa sayang kepada anak-anaknya, demikian TUHAN sayang kepada orang-orang yang takut akan Dia.
Like a father has racham ·compassionate merciful love· on his children, so Adonai has racham ·compassionate merciful love· on those who fear him.
14 Sebab Dia sendiri tahu apa kita, Dia ingat, bahwa kita ini debu.
For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.
15 Adapun manusia, hari-harinya seperti rumput, seperti bunga di padang demikianlah ia berbunga;
As for man, his days are like grass. As a flower of the field, so he flourishes.
16 apabila angin melintasinya, maka tidak ada lagi ia, dan tempatnya tidak mengenalnya lagi.
For the wind passes over it, and it is gone. Its place remembers it no more.
17 Tetapi kasih setia TUHAN dari selama-lamanya sampai selama-lamanya atas orang-orang yang takut akan Dia, dan keadilan-Nya bagi anak cucu,
But Adonai’s chesed ·loving-kindness· is from everlasting to everlasting with those who fear him, his righteousness to children’s children;
18 bagi orang-orang yang berpegang pada perjanjian-Nya dan yang ingat untuk melakukan titah-Nya.
to those who keep his covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties·, to those who remember to obey his precepts.
19 TUHAN sudah menegakkan takhta-Nya di sorga dan kerajaan-Nya berkuasa atas segala sesuatu.
Adonai has established his throne in the heavens. His kingdom rules over all.
20 Pujilah TUHAN, hai malaikat-malaikat-Nya, hai pahlawan-pahlawan perkasa yang melaksanakan firman-Nya dengan mendengarkan suara firman-Nya.
Praise Adonai, you angels of his, who are mighty in strength, who fulfill his word, Sh'ma ·hearing obeying· the voice of his word.
21 Pujilah TUHAN, hai segala tentara-Nya, hai pejabat-pejabat-Nya yang melakukan kehendak-Nya.
Praise Adonai, all you armies of his, you servants of his, who do his pleasure.
22 Pujilah TUHAN, hai segala buatan-Nya, di segala tempat kekuasaan-Nya! Pujilah TUHAN, hai jiwaku!
Praise Adonai, all you works of his, in all places of his dominion. Praise Adonai, my soul!
