Psalms 97 — WEBBE
97Verse 1The LORD reigns!Let the earth rejoice!
Let the multitude of islands be glad!Verse 2Clouds and darkness are around him.Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.Verse 3A fire goes before him,and burns up his adversaries on every side.Verse 4His lightning lights up the world.The earth sees, and trembles.Verse 5The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD,at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.Verse 6The heavens declare his righteousness.All the peoples have seen his glory.Verse 7Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images,who boast in their idols.
Worship him, all you gods!+Verse 8Zion heard and was glad.The daughters of Judah rejoiced
because of your judgements, LORD.Verse 9For you, LORD, are most high above all the earth.You are exalted far above all gods.Verse 10You who love the LORD, hate evil!He preserves the souls of his saints.
He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.Verse 11Light is sown for the righteous,and gladness for the upright in heart.Verse 12Be glad in the LORD, you righteous people!Give thanks to his holy Name.
