Psalms 97

LITV(i) 1 Jehovah reigns! Let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of islands be glad. 2 Clouds and darkness are all around Him; righteousness and judgment are the foundation of His throne. 3 A fire goes before Him and burns up His enemies all around. 4 His lightnings lit up the world; the earth saw and trembled. 5 The mountains melted like wax before the face of Jehovah, before the face of Jehovah of the whole earth. 6 The heavens declare His righteousness and all the people see His glory. 7 All who serve graven images are shamed, those who boast themselves in idols; all gods bow down before Him. 8 Zion heard and was glad; yea, the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of Your judgments, O Jehovah. 9 For You, Jehovah, are exalted above all the earth; You are lifted on high far above all gods. 10 You who love Jehovah, hate evil. He keeps the souls of His saints; He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked. 11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. 12 Be glad in Jehovah, O righteous ones; give thanks to the memory of His holiness.
