Psalm 97
Lamsa Bible Par ▾ 
1THE LORD reigns; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.

2Clouds and darkness are round about him; righteousness and judgment are the foundation of his throne.

3Fire goes before him, and burns up his enemies round about.

4His lightnings enlightened the world; the earth saw, and trembled.

5The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the LORD of the whole earth.

6The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.

7Confounded are all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols; worship him, all his angels.

8Zion heard and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD.

9For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth; thou art exalted far above all gods.

10You who love the LORD, hate evil; he preserves the souls of his saints; he delivers them out of the hand of the wicked.

11Light shone for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.

12Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.
