Psalms 97

1 The Lord hath regned, the erthe make ful out ioye; many ilis be glad.

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

2 Cloude and derknesse in his cumpas; riytfulnesse and doom is amending of his seete.

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

3 Fier schal go bifore him; and schal enflawme hise enemyes in cumpas.

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

4 Hise leitis schyneden to the world; the erthe siy, and was moued.

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

5 Hillis as wax fletiden doun fro the face of the Lord; al erthe fro the face of the Lord.

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

6 Heuenes telden his riytfulnesse; and alle puplis sien his glorie.

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

7 Alle that worschipen sculptilis be schent, and thei that han glorie in her symelacris; alle ye aungels of the Lord, worschipe him.

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

8 Sion herde, and was glad, and the douytris of Juda maden ful out ioye; for `thi domes, Lord.

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

9 For thou, Lord, art the hiyeste on al erthe; thou art greetli enhaunsid ouere alle goddis.

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

10 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.

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 Liyt is risun to the riytful man; and gladnesse to riytful men of herte.

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

12 Juste men, be ye glad in the Lord; and knouleche ye to the mynde of his halewyng.

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