Psalms 97

1 The Lord is King, let the earth have joy; let all the sea-lands be glad.

Gospod kraljuje, radúj se zemlja, veselé se naj pokrajine premnoge.

2 Dark clouds are round him; his kingdom is based on righteousness and right judging.

Oblaki in temà ga obdajajo; pravica in sodba kraj njegovega prestola.

3 Fire goes before him, burning up all those who are against him round about.

Ogenj hodi pred njim in požiga okrog sovražnike njegove.

4 His bright flames give light to the world; the earth saw it with fear.

Bliski razsvetljujejo vesoljni svet njegov, vidi in trese se zemlja.

5 The mountains became like wax at the coming of the Lord, at the coming of the Lord of all the earth.

Goré se topé kakor vosek vpričo Gospoda, vpričo vse zemlje gospodarja.

6 The heavens gave out the news of his righteousness, and all the people saw his glory.

Nebesa oznanjajo pravico njegovo; tako da vidijo vsa ljudstva čast njegovo.

7 Shamed be all those who give worship to images, and take pride in false gods; give him worship, all you gods.

Osramoté se naj vsi, ki se ponašajo z maliki; klanjajo naj se mu vsi angeli.

8 Zion gave ear and was glad; and the daughters of Judah were full of joy, because of your decisions, O Lord.

Čuje in veseli se naj Sijon, in radujejo se hčere Judovske, zavoljo sodeb tvojih, Gospod.

9 For you, Lord, are most high over the earth; you are lifted up over all other gods.

Ti namreč si Gospod, vzvišen nad vso zemljo; silno povišan si nad vse angele.

10 You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.

Kateri ljubite Gospoda, sovražite húdo; duše svojih, katerim izkazuje milost, hrani, iz rok krivičnih jih otima.

11 Light is shining on the lovers of righteousness, and for the upright in heart there is joy.

Luč se je rodila pravičnemu, in poštenim v srci radost.

12 Be glad in the Lord, you upright men; praising the memory of his holy name.

Veselite se, pravični v Gospodu, in slavite spomin svetosti njegove.
