1.1 KiB
1.1 KiB
Psalm 97
- The LORD is king!
Let the earth rejoice!
Let the farthest coastlands be glad.
- Dark clouds surround him.
Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
- Fire spreads ahead of him
and burns up all his foes.
- His lightning flashes out across the world.
The earth sees and trembles.
- The mountains melt like wax before the LORD,
before the Lord of all the earth.
- The heavens proclaim his righteousness;
every nation sees his glory.
- Those who worship idols are disgraced--
all who brag about their worthless gods--
for every god must bow to him.
- Jerusalem has heard and rejoiced,
and all the towns of Judah are glad because of your justice, O LORD!
- For you, O LORD, are supreme over all the earth;
you are exalted far above all gods.
- You who love the LORD, hate evil!
He protects the lives of his godly people
and rescues them from the power of the wicked.
- Light shines on the godly,
and joy on those whose hearts are right.
- May all who are godly rejoice in the LORD
and praise his holy name!
