97:1  The LORD is king! Let the earth rejoice! Let the farthest coastlands be glad.
97:2  Dark clouds surround him. Righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.
97:3  Fire spreads ahead of him and burns up all his foes.
97:4  His lightning flashes out across the world. The earth sees and trembles.
97:5  The mountains melt like wax before the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.
97:6  The heavens proclaim his righteousness; every nation sees his glory.
97:7  Those who worship idols are disgraced--all who brag about their worthless gods--for every god must bow to him.
97:8  Jerusalem has heard and rejoiced, and all the towns of Judah are glad because of your justice, O LORD!
97:9  For you, O LORD, are supreme over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods.
97:10  You who love the LORD, hate evil! He protects the lives of his godly people and rescues them from the power of the wicked.
97:11  Light shines on the godly, and joy on those whose hearts are right.
97:12  May all who are godly rejoice in the LORD and praise his holy name!
