< Psalms 97 >
1 YHWH has reigned, The earth is joyful, many islands rejoice.
The Lord hath regned, the erthe make ful out ioye; many ilis be glad.
2 Cloud and darkness [are] around Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.
Cloude and derknesse in his cumpas; riytfulnesse and doom is amending of his seete.
3 Fire goes before Him, And burns around His adversaries.
Fier schal go bifore him; and schal enflawme hise enemyes in cumpas.
4 His lightnings have lightened the world, The earth has seen, and is pained.
Hise leitis schyneden to the world; the erthe siy, and was moued.
5 Hills, like wax, melted before YHWH, Before the Lord of all the earth.
Hillis as wax fletiden doun fro the face of the Lord; al erthe fro the face of the Lord.
6 The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His glory.
Heuenes telden his riytfulnesse; and alle puplis sien his glorie.
7 All servants of a carved image are ashamed, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to Him, all you gods.
Alle that worschipen sculptilis be schent, and thei that han glorie in her symelacris; alle ye aungels of the Lord, worschipe him.
8 Zion has heard and rejoices, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Your judgments, O YHWH.
Sion herde, and was glad, and the douytris of Juda maden ful out ioye; for `thi domes, Lord.
9 For You, YHWH, [are] Most High over all the earth, You have been exalted greatly over all gods.
For thou, Lord, art the hiyeste on al erthe; thou art greetli enhaunsid ouere alle goddis.
10 You who love YHWH, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
Ye that louen the Lord, hate yuel; the Lord kepith the soulis of hise seyntis; he schal delyuer hem fro the hond of the synner.
11 Light [is] sown for the righteous, And joy for the upright of heart.
Liyt is risun to the riytful man; and gladnesse to riytful men of herte.
12 Rejoice, you righteous, in YHWH, And give thanks at the remembrance of His holiness!
Juste men, be ye glad in the Lord; and knouleche ye to the mynde of his halewyng.
