Psalms

Chapter 97
1

The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.

2

Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.

3

A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.

4

His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.

5

The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

6

The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.

7

Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.

8

Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.

9

For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.

10

Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

11

Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

12

Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
