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. |
