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. |
97:12 Rejoice, ye righteous, in Jehovah, And give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness! |
