Psalmorum 97

1 Huic David, quando terra ejus restituta est. Dominus regnavit: exsultet terra; lætentur insulæ multæ.

The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the distant shores be glad.

2 Nubes et caligo in circuitu ejus; justitia et judicium correctio sedis ejus.

Clouds and darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are His throne’s foundation.

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

Fire goes before Him and consumes His foes on every side.

4 Illuxerunt fulgura ejus orbi terræ; vidit, et commota est terra.

His lightning illuminates the world; the earth sees and trembles.

5 Montes sicut cera fluxerunt a facie Domini; a facie Domini omnis terra.

The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.

6 Annuntiaverunt cæli justitiam ejus, et viderunt omnes populi gloriam ejus.

The heavens proclaim His righteousness; all the peoples see His glory.

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

All worshipers of images are put to shame— those who boast in idols. Worship Him, all you gods!

8 Audivit, et lætata est Sion, et exsultaverunt filiæ Judæ propter judicia tua, Domine.

Zion hears and rejoices, and the towns of Judah exult because of Your judgments, O LORD.

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

For You, O LORD, are Most High over 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.

Hate evil, O you who love the LORD! He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

11 Lux orta est justo, et rectis corde lætitia.

Light shines on the righteous, gladness on the upright in heart.

12 Lætamini, justi, in Domino, et confitemini memoriæ sanctificationis ejus.

Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous ones, and praise His holy name.
