97 | Psalms | ||
1 | Yahweh reigns; let the earth rejoice; let the many coastlands be glad! | The Lord is King!. Psalm 97(v96) | |
2 | Clouds and thick darkness are round about him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. | ||
3 | Fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries round about. | ||
4 | His lightnings lighten the world; the earth sees and trembles. | ||
5 | The mountains melt like wax before Yahweh, before Yahweh of all the earth. | ||
6 | The heavens proclaim his righteousness; and all the peoples behold his glory. | ||
7 | All worshipers of images are put to shame, who make their boast in worthless idols; all gods bow down before him. | ||
8 | Zion hears and is glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of your judgments, O God. | ||
9 | For you, O Yahweh, are most high over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods. | ||
10 | Yahweh loves those who hate evil; he preserves the lives of his saints; he delivers them from the hand of the wicked. | ||
11 | Light dawns for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart. | ||
12 | Rejoice in Yahweh, O you righteous, and give thanks to his holy name! | ||
