< Mazmur 135 >
1 Haleluya! Pujilah nama TUHAN, pujilah, hai hamba-hamba TUHAN,
Hallelujah! Praise the name of the LORD. Give praise, O servants of the LORD,
2 hai orang-orang yang datang melayani di rumah TUHAN, di pelataran rumah Allah kita!
who stand in the house of the LORD, in the courts of the house of our God.
3 Pujilah TUHAN, sebab TUHAN itu baik, bermazmurlah bagi nama-Nya, sebab nama itu indah!
Hallelujah, for the LORD is good; sing praises to His name, for it is lovely.
4 Sebab TUHAN telah memilih Yakub bagi-Nya, Israel menjadi milik kesayangan-Nya.
For the LORD has chosen Jacob as His own, Israel as His treasured possession.
5 Sesungguhnya aku tahu, bahwa TUHAN itu maha besar dan Tuhan kita itu melebihi segala allah.
For I know that the LORD is great; our Lord is above all gods.
6 TUHAN melakukan apa yang dikehendaki-Nya, di langit dan di bumi, di laut dan di segenap samudera raya;
The LORD does all that pleases Him in the heavens and on the earth, in the seas and in all their depths.
7 Ia menaikkan kabut dari ujung bumi, Ia membuat kilat mengikuti hujan, Ia mengeluarkan angin dari dalam perbendaharaan-Nya.
He causes the clouds to rise from the ends of the earth. He generates the lightning with the rain and brings forth the wind from His storehouses.
8 Dialah yang memukul mati anak-anak sulung Mesir, baik manusia maupun hewan,
He struck down the firstborn of Egypt, of both man and beast.
9 dan mendatangkan tanda-tanda dan mujizat-mujizat ke tengah-tengahmu, hai Mesir, menentang Firaun dan menentang semua pegawainya.
He sent signs and wonders into your midst, O Egypt, against Pharaoh and all his servants.
10 Dialah yang memukul kalah banyak bangsa, dan membunuh raja-raja yang kuat:
He struck down many nations and slaughtered mighty kings:
11 Sihon, raja orang Amori, dan Og, raja negeri Basan, dan segala kerajaan Kanaan,
Sihon king of the Amorites, Og king of Bashan, and all the kings of Canaan.
12 dan memberikan tanah mereka sebagai milik pusaka, milik pusaka kepada Israel, umat-Nya.
He gave their land as an inheritance, as a heritage to His people Israel.
13 Ya TUHAN, nama-Mu adalah untuk selama-lamanya; ya TUHAN, Engkau diingat turun-temurun.
Your name, O LORD, endures forever, Your renown, O LORD, through all generations.
14 Sebab TUHAN akan memberi keadilan kepada umat-Nya, dan akan sayang kepada hamba-hamba-Nya.
For the LORD will vindicate His people and will have compassion on His servants.
15 Berhala bangsa-bangsa adalah perak dan emas, buatan tangan manusia,
The idols of the nations are silver and gold, made by the hands of men.
16 mempunyai mulut, tetapi tidak dapat berkata-kata, mempunyai mata, tetapi tidak dapat melihat,
They have mouths, but cannot speak; they have eyes, but cannot see;
17 mempunyai telinga, tetapi tidak dapat mendengar, juga nafas tidak ada dalam mulut mereka.
they have ears, but cannot hear; nor is there breath in their mouths.
18 Seperti itulah jadinya orang-orang yang membuatnya, semua orang yang percaya kepadanya.
Those who make them become like them, as do all who trust in them.
19 Hai kaum Israel, pujilah TUHAN! Hai kaum Harun, pujilah TUHAN!
O house of Israel, bless the LORD; O house of Aaron, bless the LORD;
20 Hai kaum Lewi, pujilah TUHAN! Hai orang-orang yang takut akan TUHAN, pujilah TUHAN!
O house of Levi, bless the LORD; you who fear the LORD, bless the LORD!
21 Terpujilah TUHAN dari Sion, Dia yang diam di Yerusalem! Haleluya!
Blessed be the LORD from Zion— He who dwells in Jerusalem. Hallelujah!
