97:1 Jehovah hath reigned, The earth is joyful, many isles rejoice.

97:2 Cloud and darkness [are] round about Him, Righteousness and judgment the basis of His throne.

97:3 Fire before Him goeth, And burneth round about His adversaries.

97:4 Lightened have His lightnings the world, The earth hath seen, and is pained.

97:5 Hills, like wax, melted before Jehovah, Before the Lord of all the earth.

97:6 The heavens declared His righteousness, And all the peoples have seen His honour.

97:7 Ashamed are all servants of a graven image, Those boasting themselves in idols, Bow yourselves to him, all ye gods.

97:8 Zion hath heard and rejoiceth, And daughters of Judah are joyful, Because of Thy judgments, O Jehovah.

97:9 For Thou, Jehovah, [art] Most High over all the earth, Greatly Thou hast been exalted over all gods.

97:10 Ye who love Jehovah, hate evil, He is keeping the souls of His saints, From the hand of the wicked he delivereth them.

97:11 Light [is] sown for the righteous, And for the upright of heart -- joy.
