1The Lord is king, let the earth rejoice: let her many isles be glad.
2Clouds and darkness are round about him, justice and right are the base of his throne.
3Fire goes before him, and blazes around his steps,
4his lightnings illumine the world: the earth quakes at the sight.
5Mountains melt like wax before the Lord of all the earth.
6The heavens proclaim his justice, all nations behold his glory.
7Shamed are all image-worshippers, who make a boast of their idols. All the gods bow before him.
8Zion is glad at the tidings, the towns of Judah rejoice because of your judgments, Lord.
9For you are most high over all the earth, greatly exalted above all gods.
Psalms 97
