Mazmur 97

1 TUHAN adalah Raja! Biarlah bumi bersorak-sorak, biarlah banyak pulau bersukacita!

This is to David, when his land was restored to him. The Lord has reigned, let the earth exult. Let the many islands rejoice.

2 Awan dan kekelaman ada sekeliling Dia, keadilan dan hukum adalah tumpuan takhta-Nya.

Clouds and mist are all around him. Justice and judgment are corrections from his throne.

3 Api menjalar di hadapan-Nya, dan menghanguskan para lawan-Nya sekeliling.

A fire will precede him, and it will enflame his enemies all around.

4 Kilat-kilat-Nya menerangi dunia, bumi melihatnya dan gemetar.

His lightnings have enlightened the whole world. The earth saw, and it was shaken.

5 Gunung-gunung luluh seperti lilin di hadapan TUHAN, di hadapan Tuhan seluruh bumi.

The mountains flowed like wax before the face of the Lord, before the face of the Lord of all the earth.

6 Langit memberitakan keadilan-Nya, dan segala bangsa melihat kemuliaan-Nya.

The heavens announced his justice, and all peoples saw his glory.

7 Semua orang yang beribadah kepada patung akan mendapat malu, orang yang memegahkan diri karena berhala-berhala; segala allah sujud menyembah kepada-Nya.

May all those who adore graven images be confounded, along with those who glory in their false images. All you his Angels: Adore him.

8 Sion mendengarnya dan bersukacita, puteri-puteri Yehuda bersorak-sorak, oleh karena penghukuman-Mu, ya TUHAN.

Zion heard, and was glad. And the daughters of Judah exulted because of your judgments, O Lord.

9 Sebab Engkaulah, ya TUHAN, Yang Mahatinggi di atas seluruh bumi, Engkau sangat dimuliakan di atas segala allah.

For you are the Most High Lord over all the earth. You are greatly exalted above all gods.

10 Hai orang-orang yang mengasihi TUHAN, bencilah kejahatan! Dia, yang memelihara nyawa orang-orang yang dikasihi-Nya, akan melepaskan mereka dari tangan orang-orang fasik.

You who love the Lord: hate evil. The Lord watches over the souls of his holy ones. He will free them from the hand of the sinner.

11 Terang sudah terbit bagi orang benar, dan sukacita bagi orang-orang yang tulus hati.

The light has risen for the just, and joy for the upright of heart.

12 Bersukacitalah karena TUHAN, hai orang-orang benar, dan nyanyikanlah syukur bagi nama-Nya yang kudus.

Rejoice in the Lord, you just ones, and confess to the memory of his sanctuary.
