Psalms 97

1 The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the distant shores be glad.

Jehova Nyasaye e Ruoth, omiyo piny mondo obed mamor; dho nembe man mabor mondo obed moil.

2 Clouds and darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are His throne’s foundation.

Boche polo gi mudho mandiwa oume; tim makare gi adiera e mise mar lochne.

3 Fire goes before Him and consumes His foes on every side.

Mach liel e nyime kendo wangʼo wasike e alworane duto.

4 His lightning illuminates the world; the earth sees and trembles.

Mil polo mare menyo piny; piny neno kendo yiengni.

5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.

Gode leny nono ka odok e nyim Jehova Nyasaye, gileny nono e nyim Ruoth piny duto.

6 The heavens proclaim His righteousness; all the peoples see His glory.

Polo hulo timne makare, kendo ji duto neno duongʼne.

7 All worshipers of images are put to shame— those who boast in idols. Worship Him, all you gods!

Ji duto malamo gik mokedi wigi okuot; jogo gin joma sungore kuom nyiseche mopa; nyiseche duto mondo olame!

8 Zion hears and rejoices, and the towns of Judah exult because of Your judgments, O LORD.

Sayun nowinjo wachno mi obedo moil, miech Juda bende nobedo mamor, nikech bucheni, yaye Jehova Nyasaye.

9 For You, O LORD, are Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.

Nimar in Jehova Nyasaye, e Nyasaye Man Malo Moloyo mohewo piny duto; iduongʼ kendo iyombo nyiseche mamoko duto mabor.

10 Hate evil, O you who love the LORD! He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

Joma ohero Jehova Nyasaye mondo osin gi gik maricho nimar orito ngima joge ma jo-adiera, kendo oresogi e lwet joma richo.

11 Light shines on the righteous, gladness on the upright in heart.

Joma kare imenyonegi ler; joma oriere gie chunygi imiyo mor.

12 Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous ones, and praise His holy name.

Moruru kuom Jehova Nyasaye un joma kare, kendo pakuru nyinge maler.
