Psalms 97
1 For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.
| יְהוָ֣ה מָ֭לָךְ תָּגֵ֣ל הָאָ֑רֶץ יִ֝שְׂמְח֗וּ אִיִּ֥ים רַבִּֽים׃ |
2 Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the establishment of his throne.
| עָנָ֣ן וַעֲרָפֶ֣ל סְבִיבָ֑יו צֶ֥דֶק וּ֝מִשְׁפָּ֗ט מְכֹ֣ון כִּסְאֹֽו׃ |
3 Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.
| אֵ֭שׁ לְפָנָ֣יו תֵּלֵ֑ךְ וּתְלַהֵ֖ט סָבִ֣יב צָרָֽיו׃ |
4 His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
| הֵאִ֣ירוּ בְרָקָ֣יו תֵּבֵ֑ל רָאֲתָ֖ה וַתָּחֵ֣ל הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
| הָרִ֗ים כַּדֹּונַ֗ג נָ֭מַסּוּ מִלִּפְנֵ֣י יְהוָ֑ה מִ֝לִּפְנֵ֗י אֲדֹ֣ון כָּל־הָאָֽרֶץ׃ |
6 The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.
| הִגִּ֣ידוּ הַשָּׁמַ֣יִם צִדְקֹ֑ו וְרָא֖וּ כָל־הָעַמִּ֣ים כְּבֹודֹֽו׃ |
7 Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all ye his angels.
| יֵבֹ֤שׁוּ ׀ כָּל־עֹ֬בְדֵי פֶ֗סֶל הַמִּֽתְהַלְלִ֥ים בָּאֱלִילִ֑ים הִשְׁתַּחֲווּ־לֹ֝ו כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ |
8 Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of thy judgments, O Lord.
| שָׁמְעָ֬ה וַתִּשְׂמַ֨ח ׀ צִיֹּ֗ון וַ֭תָּגֵלְנָה בְּנֹ֣ות יְהוּדָ֑ה לְמַ֖עַן מִשְׁפָּטֶ֣יךָ יְהוָֽה׃ |
9 For thou art Lord most high over all the earth; thou art greatly exalted above all gods.
| כִּֽי־אַתָּ֤ה יְהוָ֗ה עֶלְיֹ֥ון עַל־כָּל־הָאָ֑רֶץ מְאֹ֥ד נַ֝עֲלֵ֗יתָ עַל־כָּל־אֱלֹהִֽים׃ |
10 Ye that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.
| אֹהֲבֵ֥י יְהוָ֗ה שִׂנְא֫וּ רָ֥ע שֹׁ֭מֵר נַפְשֹׁ֣ות חֲסִידָ֑יו מִיַּ֥ד רְ֝שָׁעִ֗ים יַצִּילֵֽם׃ |
11 Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
| אֹ֖ור זָרֻ֣עַ לַצַּדִּ֑יק וּֽלְיִשְׁרֵי־לֵ֥ב שִׂמְחָֽה׃ |
12 Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
| שִׂמְח֣וּ צַ֭דִּיקִים בַּֽיהוָ֑ה וְ֝הֹוד֗וּ לְזֵ֣כֶר קָדְשֹֽׁו׃ |
