Psm97:1 A Song of Praise to the Sovereign LORD The LORD reigns; Let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad!
Psm97:2 Clouds and darkness surround Him; Righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
Psm97:3 A fire goes before Him, And burns up His enemies round about.
Psm97:4 His lightnings light the world; The earth sees and trembles.
Psm97:5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Psm97:6 The heavens declare His righteousness, And all the peoples see His glory.
Psm97:7 Let all be put to shame who serve carved images, Who boast of idols. Worship Him, all you gods.
Psm97:8 Zion hears and is glad, And the daughters of Judah rejoice Because of Your judgments, O LORD.
Psm97:9 For You, LORD, are most high above all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.
Psm97:10 You who love the LORD, hate evil! He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
Psm97:11 Light is sown for the righteous, And gladness for the upright in heart.
Psm97:12 Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holy name.
