Psalms Chapter 97
1 | The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. | 2 | Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne. | 3 | A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. | 4 | His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. | 5 | The hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth. | 6 | The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory. | 7 | Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all ye gods. | 8 | Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD. | 9 | For thou, LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. | 10 | 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 | Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart. | 12 | Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness. |
