1 Psalm 97 Remember His Holy Name Yahweh 97:1Or has assumed Kingship 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 HimAnd burns up His adversaries all around.
4 His lightnings light up the world;The earth sees and trembles.
5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of Yahweh,At the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
6 The heavens declare His righteousness,And all the peoples see His glory.
7 ¶Let all those be ashamed who serve graven images,Who boast of idols; 97:7Or All the gods have worshiped Him Worship Him, all you 97:7Or supernatural powers gods!
8 Zion 97:8Or possibly hears and is glad heardthisand was glad,And the daughters of Judah have rejoicedBecause of Your judgments, O Yahweh.
9 For You are Yahweh Most High over all the earth;You are exalted far above all 97:9Or supernatural powers gods.
10 ¶Hate evil, you who love Yahweh,Who keeps the souls of His holy ones;He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.
11 Light is sown for the righteousAnd gladness for the upright in heart.
12 Be glad in Yahweh, you righteous ones,And give thanks for the remembrance of 97:12Lit His holiness His holyname.
