Chapter 97

1


 

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

 

 

--

2


 

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

 

 

--

3


 

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

 

 

--

4


 

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

 

 

--

5


 

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

 

 

--

6


 

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

 

 

--

7


 

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

 

 

--

8


 

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

 

 

--

9


 

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

 

 

--

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.  

 

 

--

11


 

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

 

 

--

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