Mazmur 105
1 Bersyukurlah kepada TUHAN, serukanlah nama-Nya, perkenalkanlah perbuatan-Nya di antara bangsa-bangsa!
O give thanks unto the LORD, call upon His name; make known His doings among the peoples.
2 Bernyanyilah bagi-Nya, bermazmurlah bagi-Nya, percakapkanlah segala perbuatan-Nya yang ajaib!
Sing unto Him, sing praises unto Him; speak ye of all His marvellous works.
3 Bermegahlah di dalam nama-Nya yang kudus, biarlah bersukahati orang-orang yang mencari TUHAN!
Glory ye in His holy name; let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
4 Carilah TUHAN dan kekuatan-Nya, carilah wajah-Nya selalu!
Seek ye the LORD and His strength; seek His face continually.
5 Ingatlah perbuatan-perbuatan ajaib yang dilakukan-Nya, mujizat-mujizat-Ny dan penghukuman-penghukuman yang diucapkan-Nya,
Remember His marvellous works that He hath done, His wonders, and the judgments of His mouth;
6 hai anak cucu Abraham, hamba-Nya, hai anak-anak Yakub, orang-orang pilihan-Nya!
O ye seed of Abraham His servant, ye children of Jacob, His chosen ones.
7 Dialah TUHAN, Allah kita, di seluruh bumi berlaku penghukuman-Nya.
He is the LORD our God; His judgments are in all the earth.
8 Ia ingat untuk selama-lamanya akan perjanjian-Nya, firman yang diperintahkan-Nya kepada seribu angkatan,
He hath remembered His covenant for ever, the word which He commanded to a thousand generations;
9 yang diikat-Nya dengan Abraham, dan akan sumpah-Nya kepada Ishak;
The covenant which He made with Abraham, and His oath unto Isaac;
10 diadakan-Nya hal itu menjadi ketetapan bagi Yakub, menjadi perjanjian kekal bagi Israel,
And He established it unto Jacob for a statute, to Israel for an everlasting covenant;
11 firman-Nya: "Kepadamu akan Kuberikan tanah Kanaan, sebagai milik pusaka yang ditentukan bagimu."
Saying: 'Unto thee will I give the land of Canaan, the lot of your inheritance.'
12 Ketika jumlah mereka tidak seberapa, sedikit saja, dan mereka orang-orang asing di sana,
When they were but a few men in number. Yea, very few, and sojourners in it,
13 dan mengembara dari bangsa yang satu ke bangsa yang lain, dari kerajaan yang satu ke suku bangsa yang lain,
And when they went about from nation to nation, from one kingdom to another people,
14 Ia tidak membiarkan seorangpun memeras mereka, raja-raja dihukum-Nya oleh karena mereka:
He suffered no man to do them wrong, yea, for their sake He reproved kings:
15 "Jangan mengusik orang-orang yang Kuurapi, dan jangan berbuat jahat kepada nabi-nabi-Ku!"
'Touch not Mine anointed ones, and do My prophets no harm.'
16 Ketika Ia mendatangkan kelaparan ke atas negeri itu, dan menghancurkan seluruh persediaan makanan,
And He called a famine upon the land; He broke the whole staff of bread.
17 diutus-Nyalah seorang mendahului mereka: Yusuf, yang dijual menjadi budak.
He sent a man before them; Joseph was sold for a servant;
18 Mereka mengimpit kakinya dengan belenggu, lehernya masuk ke dalam besi,
His feet they hurt with fetters, his person was laid in iron;
19 sampai saat firman-Nya sudah genap, dan janji TUHAN membenarkannya.
Until the time that his word came to pass, the word of the LORD tested him.
20 Raja menyuruh melepaskannya, penguasa bangsa-bangsa membebaskannya.
The king sent and loosed him; even the ruler of the peoples, and set him free.
21 Dijadikannya dia tuan atas istananya, dan kuasa atas segala harta kepunyaannya,
He made him lord of his house, and ruler of all his possessions;
22 untuk memberikan petunjuk kepada para pembesarnya sekehendak hatinya dan mengajarkan hikmat kepada para tua-tuanya.
To bind his princes at his pleasure, and teach his elders wisdom.
23 Demikianlah Israel datang ke Mesir, dan Yakub tinggal sebagai orang asing di tanah Ham.
Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24 TUHAN membuat umat-Nya sangat subur, dan menjadikannya lebih kuat dari pada para lawannya;
And He increased His people greatly, and made them too mighty for their adversaries.
25 diubah-Nya hati mereka untuk membenci umat-Nya, untuk memperdayakan hamba-hamba-Nya.
He turned their heart to hate His people, to deal craftily with His servants.
26 Diutus-Nya Musa, hamba-Nya, dan Harun yang telah dipilih-Nya;
He sent Moses His servant, and Aaron whom He had chosen.
27 keduanya mengadakan tanda-tanda-Nya di antara mereka, dan mujizat-mujizat di tanah Ham:
They wrought among them His manifold signs, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28 dikirim-Nya kegelapan, maka hari menjadi gelap, tetapi mereka memberontak terhadap firman-Nya;
He sent darkness, and it was dark; and they rebelled not against His word.
29 diubah-Nya air mereka menjadi darah, dan dimatikan-Nya ikan-ikan mereka.
He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30 Katak-katak berkeriapan di negeri mereka, bahkan di kamar-kamar raja mereka;
Their land swarmed with frogs, in the chambers of their kings.
31 Ia berfirman, maka datanglah lalat pikat, dan nyamuk-nyamuk di seluruh daerah mereka;
He spoke, and there came swarms of flies, and gnats in all their borders.
32 dicurahkan-Nya hujan es ganti hujan mereka, dan api yang menyala-nyala di negeri mereka;
He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
33 dirubuhkan-Nya pohon anggur dan pohon ara mereka, dan ditumbangkan-Nya pohon di daerah mereka;
He smote their vines also and their fig-trees; and broke the trees of their borders.
34 Ia berfirman, maka datanglah belalang dan belalang pelompat tidak terbilang banyaknya,
He spoke, and the locust came, and the canker-worm without number,
35 yang memakan segala tumbuh-tumbuhan di negeri mereka, dan memakan hasil tanah mereka;
And did eat up every herb in their land, and did eat up the fruit of their ground.
36 dibunuh-Nya semua anak sulung di negeri mereka, mula segala kegagahan mereka:
He smote also all the first-born in their land, the first-fruits of all their strength.
37 Dituntun-Nya mereka keluar membawa perak dan emas, dan di antara suku-suku mereka tidak ada yang tergelincir.
And He brought them forth with silver and gold; and there was none that stumbled among His tribes.
38 Orang Mesir bersukacita, ketika mereka keluar, sebab orang-orang Mesir itu ditimpa ketakutan terhadap mereka.
Egypt was glad when they departed; for the fear of them had fallen upon them.
39 Dibentangkan-Nya awan menjadi tudung, dan api untuk menerangi malam.
He spread a cloud for a screen; and fire to give light in the night.
40 Mereka meminta, maka didatangkan-Nya burung puyuh, dan dengan roti dari langit dikenyangkan-Nya mereka.
They asked, and He brought quails, and gave them in plenty the bread of heaven.
41 Dibuka-Nya gunung batu, maka terpancarlah air, lalu mengalir di padang-padang kering seperti sungai;
He opened the rock, and waters gushed out; they ran, a river in the dry places.
42 sebab Ia ingat akan firman-Nya yang kudus, akan Abraham, hamba-Nya.
For He remembered His holy word unto Abraham His servant;
43 Dituntun-Nya umat-Nya keluar dengan kegirangan dan orang-orang pilihan-Nya dengan sorak-sorai.
And He brought forth His people with joy, His chosen ones with singing.
44 Diberikan-Nya kepada mereka negeri-negeri bangsa-bangsa, sehingga mereka memiliki hasil jerih payah suku-suku bangsa,
And He gave them the lands of the nations, and they took the labour of the peoples in possession;
45 agar supaya mereka tetap mengikuti ketetapan-Nya, dan memegang segala pengajaran-Nya. Haleluya!
That they might keep His statutes, and observe His laws. Hallelujah.
