< Psalms 97 >

1 The Lord hath regned, the erthe make ful out ioye; many ilis be glad.
The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad [thereof].
2 Cloude and derknesse in his cumpas; riytfulnesse and doom is amending of his seete.
Clouds and darkness [are] round about him: righteousness and judgment [are] the habitation of his throne.
3 Fier schal go bifore him; and schal enflawme hise enemyes in cumpas.
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
4 Hise leitis schyneden to the world; the erthe siy, and was moued.
His lightnings enlightened 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 hills 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 declare his righteousness, and all the people see 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.
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all [ye] gods.
8 Sion herde, and was glad, and the douytris of Juda maden ful out ioye; for `thi domes, Lord.
Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.
9 For thou, Lord, art the hiyeste on al erthe; thou art greetli enhaunsid ouere alle goddis.
For thou, LORD, [art] high above all the earth: thou art exalted far 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.
Ye that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
11 Liyt is risun to the riytful man; and gladnesse to riytful men of herte.
Light is sown 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, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
