Psalm
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.
