Psalms 97


font

1The LORD is king; let the earth rejoice; let the many islands be glad.2Cloud and darkness surround the Lord; justice and right are the foundation of his throne.3Fire goes before him; everywhere it consumes the foes.4Lightning illumines the world; the earth sees and trembles.5The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.6The heavens proclaim God's justice; all peoples see his glory.7All who serve idols are put to shame, who glory in worthless things; all gods bow down before you.8Zion hears and is glad, and the cities of Judah rejoice because of your judgments, O LORD.9You, LORD, are the Most High over all the earth, exalted far above all gods.10The LORD loves those who hate evil, protects the lives of the faithful, rescues them from the hand of the wicked.11Light dawns for the just; gladness, for the honest of heart.12Rejoice in the LORD, you just, and praise his holy name.
