Psalms 97

1 Yahweh he reigns let it be glad the earth let them rejoice islands many.

For David, when his land is established. The Lord reigns, let the earth exult, let many islands rejoice.

2 Cloud and thick darkness [are] around him [is] righteousness and justice [the] foundation of throne his.

Cloud, and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the establishment of his throne.

3 Fire before him it goes and it may burn up all around opponents his.

Fire shall go before him, and burn up his enemies round about.

4 They light up lightning flashes his [the] world it sees and it trembled the earth.

His lightnings appeared to the world; the earth saw, and trembled.

5 Mountains like wax they melt from to before Yahweh from to before [the] lord of all the earth.

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

6 They declare the heavens righteousness his and they see all the peoples glory his.

The heavens have declared his righteousness, and all the people have seen his glory.

7 Let them be ashamed - all [those who] serve an image those [who] boast in worthless idols bow down to him O all gods.

Let all that worship graven images be ashamed, who boast of their idols; worship him, all you his angels.

8 It hears and it rejoiced - Zion and they were glad [the] daughters of Judah on account of judgments your O Yahweh.

Sion heard and rejoiced; and the daughters of Judea exulted, because of your judgments, O Lord.

9 For you O Yahweh [are] most high over all the earth exceedingly you are exalted above all gods.

For you are Lord most high over all the earth; you are greatly exalted above all gods.

10 O [you who] love Yahweh hate evil [he is] protecting [the] lives of faithful [people] his from [the] hand of wicked [people] he delivers them.

You that love the Lord, hate evil; the Lord preserves the souls of his saints; he shall deliver them from the hand of sinners.

11 Light [is] sown for the righteous and for [people] upright of heart joy.

Light is sprung up for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

12 Rejoice O righteous [people] in Yahweh and give thanks to [the] remembrance of holiness his.

Rejoice in the Lord, you righteous; and give thanks for a remembrance of his holiness.
