Mazmur 72
Mazmur · Psalms
1Dari Salomo. Ya Allah, berikanlah hukum-Mu kepada raja dan keadilan-Mu kepada putera raja!
1Give the king your justice, O God, and your righteousness to the royal son!
2Kiranya ia mengadili umat-Mu dengan keadilan dan orang-orang-Mu yang tertindas dengan hukum!
2May he judge your people with righteousness, and your poor with justice!
3Kiranya gunung-gunung membawa damai sejahtera bagi bangsa, dan bukit-bukit membawa kebenaran!
3Let the mountains bear prosperity for the people, and the hills, in righteousness!
4Kiranya ia memberi keadilan kepada orang-orang yang tertindas dari bangsa itu, menolong orang-orang miskin, tetapi meremukkan pemeras-pemeras!
4May he defend the cause of the poor of the people, give deliverance to the children of the needy, and crush the oppressor!
5Kiranya lanjut umurnya selama ada matahari, dan selama ada bulan, turun-temurun!
5May they fear you while the sun endures, and as long as the moon, throughout all generations!
6Kiranya ia seperti hujan yang turun ke atas padang rumput, seperti dirus hujan yang menggenangi bumi!
6May he be like rain that falls on the mown grass, like showers that water the earth!
7Kiranya keadilan berkembang dalam zamannya dan damai sejahtera berlimpah, sampai tidak ada lagi bulan!
7In his days may the righteous flourish, and peace abound, till the moon be no more!
8Kiranya ia memerintah dari laut ke laut, dari sungai Efrat sampai ke ujung bumi!
8May he have dominion from sea to sea, and from the River to the ends of the earth!
9Kiranya penghuni padang belantara berlutut di depannya, dan musuh-musuhnya menjilat debu;
9May desert tribes bow down before him and his enemies lick the dust!
10kiranya raja-raja dari Tarsis dan pulau-pulau membawa persembahan-persemb kiranya raja-raja dari Syeba dan Seba menyampaikan upeti!
10May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlands render him tribute; may the kings of Sheba and Seba bring gifts!
11Kiranya semua raja sujud menyembah kepadanya, dan segala bangsa menjadi hambanya!
11May all kings fall down before him, all nations serve him!
12Sebab ia akan melepaskan orang miskin yang berteriak minta tolong, orang yang tertindas, dan orang yang tidak punya penolong;
12For he delivers the needy when he calls, the poor and him who has no helper.
13ia akan sayang kepada orang lemah dan orang miskin, ia akan menyelamatkan nyawa orang miskin.
13He has pity on the weak and the needy, and saves the lives of the needy.
14Ia akan menebus nyawa mereka dari penindasan dan kekerasan, darah mereka mahal di matanya.
14From oppression and violence he redeems their life, and precious is their blood in his sight.
15Hiduplah ia! Kiranya dipersembahkan kepadanya emas Syeba! Kiranya ia didoakan senantiasa, dan diberkati sepanjang hari!
15Long may he live; may gold of Sheba be given to him! May prayer be made for him continually, and blessings invoked for him all the day!
16Biarlah tanaman gandum berlimpah-limpah di negeri, bergelombang di puncak pegunungan; biarlah buahnya mekar bagaikan Libanon, bulir-bulirnya berkembang bagaikan rumput di bumi.
16May there be abundance of grain in the land; on the tops of the mountains may it wave; may its fruit be like Lebanon; and may people blossom in the cities like the grass of the field!
17Biarlah namanya tetap selama-lamanya, kiranya namanya semakin dikenal selama ada matahari. Kiranya segala bangsa saling memberkati dengan namanya, dan menyebut dia berbahagia.
17May his name endure forever, his fame continue as long as the sun! May people be blessed in him, all nations call him blessed!
18Terpujilah TUHAN, Allah Israel, yang melakukan perbuatan yang ajaib seorang diri!
18Blessed be the LORD, the God of Israel, who alone does wondrous things.
19Dan terpujilah kiranya nama-Nya yang mulia selama-lamanya, dan kiranya kemuliaan-Nya memenuhi seluruh bumi. Amin, ya amin.
19Blessed be his glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with his glory! Amen and Amen!
20Sekianlah doa-doa Daud bin Isai.
