97:1 The Lord is King! Tell the earth to celebrate and all islands to shout.
97:2 Dark clouds surround him, and his throne is supported by justice and fairness.
97:3 Fire leaps from his throne, destroying his enemies,
97:4 and his lightning is so bright that the earth sees it and trembles.
97:5 Mountains melt away like wax in the presence of the Lord of all the earth.
97:6 The heavens announce, “The Lord brings justice!” Everyone sees God's glory.
97:7 Those who brag about the useless idols they worship are terribly ashamed, and all the false gods bow down to the Lord.
97:8 When the people of Zion and of the towns of Judah hear that God brings justice, they will celebrate.
97:9 The Lord rules the whole earth, and he is more glorious than all the false gods.
97:10 Love the Lord and hate evil! God protects his loyal people and rescues them from violence.
97:11 If you obey and do right, a light will show you the way and fill you with happiness.
97:12 You are the Lord's people! So celebrate and praise the only God.
