Psalm 97 [1] The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the many coastlands be glad! [2] Clouds and thick darkness are all around him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne. [3] Fire goes before him and burns up his adversaries all around. [4] His lightnings light up the world; the earth sees and trembles. [5] The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth. [6] The heavens proclaim his righteousness, and all the peoples see his glory. [7] All worshipers of images are put to shame, who make their boast in worthless idols; worship him, all you gods! [8] Zion hears and is glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of your judgments, O LORD. [9] For you, O LORD, are most high over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods. [10] O you who love the LORD, hate evil! He preserves the lives of his saints; he delivers them from the hand of the wicked. [11] Light is sown for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart. [12] Rejoice in the LORD, O you righteous, and give thanks to his holy name! (ESV)
