Psalms 97

1 Jehovah reigneth: let the earth be glad, let the many isles rejoice.

Huic David, Quando terra eius restituta est. Dominus regnavit, exultet terra: lætentur insulæ multæ.

2 Clouds and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the foundation of his throne.

Nubes, et caligo in circuitu eius: iustitia, et iudicium correctio sedis eius.

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

Ignis ante ipsum præcedet, et inflammabit in circuitu inimicos eius.

4 His lightnings lightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.

Illuxerunt fulgura eius orbi terræ: vidit, et commota est terra.

5 The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

Montes, sicut cera fluxerunt a facie Domini: a facie Domini omnis terra.

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

Annunciaverunt cæli iustitiam eius: et viderunt omnes populi gloriam eius.

7 Ashamed be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols. Worship him, all ye gods.

Confundantur omnes, qui adorant sculptilia: et qui gloriantur in simulacris suis. Adorate eum omnes angeli eius:

8 Zion heard, and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judah were glad, because of thy judgments, O Jehovah.

audivit, et lætata est Sion. Et exultaverunt filiæ Iudæ, propter iudicia tua Domine:

9 For thou, Jehovah, art the Most High above all the earth; thou art exalted exceedingly above all gods.

Quoniam tu Dominus altissimus super omnem terram: nimis exaltatus es super omnes deos.

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

Qui diligitis Dominum, odite malum: custodit Dominus animas sanctorum suorum, de manu peccatoris liberabit eos.

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

Lux orta est iusto, et rectis corde lætitia.

12 Rejoice in Jehovah, ye righteous; and give thanks in remembrance of his holiness.

Lætamini iusti in Domino: et confitemini memoriæ sanctificationis eius.
