Psalms 97
1 Jehovah reigns. Let the earth rejoice. Let the multitude of islands be glad.
Yhwh reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
2 Clouds and darkness are around him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the foundation of his throne.
3 A fire goes before him, and burns up his adversaries on every side.
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4 His lightning lights up the world. The earth sees, and trembles.
His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.
5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of Jehovah, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
The hills melted like wax at the presence of Yhwh, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 The heavens declare his righteousness. All the peoples have seen his glory.
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
7 Let all them be shamed who serve engraved images, who boast in their idols. Worship him, all you gods.
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods.
8 Zion heard and was glad. The daughters of Judah rejoiced, because of your judgments, Jehovah.
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O Yhwh.
9 For you, Jehovah, are most high above all the earth. You are exalted far above all gods.
For thou, Yhwh, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods.
10 You who love Jehovah, hate evil. He preserves the souls of his faithful ones. He delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.
Ye that love Yhwh, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Be glad in Jehovah, you righteous people. Give thanks to his holy Name.
Rejoice in Yhwh, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
