Psalms 97
97
1 Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles rejoice.
2Cloud and darkness [are] round about Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.
3Fire before Him goeth, And burneth round about His adversaries.
4Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath seen, and is pained.
5Hills, like wax, melted before Jehovah, Before the Lord of all the earth.
6The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His honour.
7Ashamed are all servants of a graven image, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.
8Zion hath heard and rejoiceth, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Thy judgments, O Jehovah.
9For Thou, Jehovah, [art] Most High over all the earth, Greatly Thou hast been exalted over all gods.
10Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.
11Light [is] sown for the righteous, And for the upright of heart — joy.
12Rejoice, ye righteous, in Jehovah, And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness!

PSALM 97
The Lord’s Power and Dominion.
1The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice;
Let the many #Or coastlandsislands be glad.
2Clouds and thick darkness surround Him;
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
3Fire goes before Him
And burns up His adversaries round about.
4His lightnings lit up the world;
The earth saw and trembled.
5The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord,
At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6The heavens declare His righteousness,
And all the peoples have seen His glory.
7Let all those be ashamed who serve graven images,
Who boast themselves of idols;
Worship Him, all you gods.
8Zion heard this and was glad,
And the daughters of Judah have rejoiced
Because of Your judgments, O Lord.
9For You are the Lord Most High over all the earth;
You are exalted far above all gods.
10Hate evil, you who love the Lord,
Who preserves the souls of His godly ones;
He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
11Light is sown like seed for the righteous
And gladness for the upright in heart.
12Be glad in the Lord, you righteous ones,
And give thanks to His holy name.
