Psalms 97
Ready to read
1
The LORD reigns! Let the earth rejoice; let the many coasts and islands be glad. ⓐ
2
Clouds and thick darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne. ⓑ
3
Fire goes before Him and burns up His foes on every side. ⓒ
4
His lightning lights up the world; the earth sees and trembles. ⓓ
5
The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD — at the presence of the Lord of all the earth. ⓔ
6
The heavens proclaim His righteousness; ⓕ all the peoples see His glory. ⓖ
7
All who serve carved images, those who boast in idols, will be put to shame. ⓗ All the gods [1] must worship Him. ⓘ
8
Zion hears and is glad, and the towns [2] of Judah rejoice because of Your judgments, LORD. ⓙ
9
For You, LORD, are the Most High over all the earth; You are exalted above all the gods. ⓚ
10
You who love the LORD, hate evil! ⓛ He protects the lives of His godly ones; ⓜ He rescues them from the power of the wicked. ⓝ
11
Light dawns [3] [4] for the righteous, gladness for the upright in heart. ⓞ
12
Be glad in Yahweh, you righteous ones, and praise His holy name. [5] ⓟ
