< Psalms 97 >
1 The Lord reigneth: let the earth reioyce: let the multitude of the yles be glad.
Huic David, quando terra ejus restituta est. [Dominus regnavit: exsultet terra; lætentur insulæ multæ.
2 Cloudes and darkenes are round about him: righteousnesse and iudgement are the foundation of his throne.
Nubes et caligo in circuitu ejus; justitia et judicium correctio sedis ejus.
3 There shall goe a fire before him, and burne vp his enemies round about.
Ignis ante ipsum præcedet, et inflammabit in circuitu inimicos ejus.
4 His lightnings gaue light vnto the worlde: the earth sawe it and was afraide.
Illuxerunt fulgura ejus orbi terræ; vidit, et commota est terra.
5 The mountaines melted like waxe at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
Montes sicut cera fluxerunt a facie Domini; a facie Domini omnis terra.
6 The heauens declare his righteousnes, and all the people see his glory.
Annuntiaverunt cæli justitiam ejus, et viderunt omnes populi gloriam ejus.
7 Confounded be all they that serue grauen images, and that glory in idoles: worship him all ye gods.
Confundantur omnes qui adorant sculptilia, et qui gloriantur in simulacris suis. Adorate eum omnes angeli ejus.
8 Zion heard of it, and was glad: and the daughters of Iudah reioyced, because of thy iudgements, O Lord.
Audivit, et lætata est Sion, et exsultaverunt filiæ Judæ propter judicia tua, Domine.
9 For thou, Lord, art most High aboue all the earth: thou art much exalted aboue all gods.
Quoniam tu Dominus altissimus super omnem terram; nimis exaltatus es super omnes deos.
10 Ye that loue the Lord, hate euill: he preserueth the soules of his Saints: hee will deliuer them from the hand of the wicked.
Qui diligitis Dominum, odite malum: custodit Dominus animas sanctorum suorum; de manu peccatoris liberabit eos.
11 Light is sowen for the righteous, and ioy for the vpright in heart.
Lux orta est justo, et rectis corde lætitia.
12 Reioyce ye righteous in the Lord, and giue thankes for his holy remembrance.
Lætamini, justi, in Domino, et confitemini memoriæ sanctificationis ejus.]
