Psalmorum 97

1 Huic David, Quando terra eius restituta est. Dominus regnavit, exultet terra: lætentur insulæ multæ.

The LORD reigns; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.

2 Nubes, et caligo in circuitu eius: iustitia, et iudicium correctio sedis eius.

Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.

3 Ignis ante ipsum præcedet, et inflammabit in circuitu inimicos eius.

A fire goes before him, and burns up his enemies round about.

4 Illuxerunt fulgura eius orbi terræ: vidit, et commota est terra.

His lightning enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled.

5 Montes, sicut cera fluxerunt a facie Domini: a facie Domini omnis terra.

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

6 Annunciaverunt cæli iustitiam eius: et viderunt omnes populi gloriam eius.

The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.

7 Confundantur omnes, qui adorant sculptilia: et qui gloriantur in simulacris suis. Adorate eum omnes angeli eius:

Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all you gods.

8 audivit, et lætata est Sion. Et exultaverunt filiæ Iudæ, propter iudicia tua Domine:

Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of your judgments, O LORD.

9 Quoniam tu Dominus altissimus super omnem terram: nimis exaltatus es super omnes deos.

For you, LORD, are high above all the earth: you are exalted far above all gods.

10 Qui diligitis Dominum, odite malum: custodit Dominus animas sanctorum suorum, de manu peccatoris liberabit eos.

You that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserves the souls of his saints; he delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.

11 Lux orta est iusto, et rectis corde lætitia.

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

12 Lætamini iusti in Domino: et confitemini memoriæ sanctificationis eius.

Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
