| Chapter 97 |
1 |
Jehovah reigneth; let the earth rejoice; Let the multitude of isles be glad.
|
2 |
Clouds and darkness are round about him: Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
|
3 |
A fire goeth before him, And burneth up his adversaries round about.
|
4 |
His lightnings lightened the world: The earth saw, and trembled.
|
5 |
The mountains melted like wax at the presence of Jehovah, At the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
|
6 |
The heavens declare his righteousness, And all the peoples have seen his glory.
|
7 |
Let all them be put to shame 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 Jehovah.
|
9 |
For thou, Jehovah, art most high above all the earth: Thou art exalted far above all gods.
|
10 |
O ye that love Jehovah, 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 |
Be glad in Jehovah, ye righteous; And give thanks to his holy memorial [name]. Psalm 98 A Psalm.
