"The
LORD reigneth; let the earth
rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof. Clouds and darkness
are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his
throne. A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
His lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. The
hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the
Lord of the whole earth. The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the
people see his glory.
Confounded be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of
idols: worship him, all ye gods. Zion heard, and was glad; and the
daughters of Judah rejoiced because of thy judgments, O LORD. For thou,
LORD, art high above all the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. Ye
that love the LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he
delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
Light is sown for the righteous, and gladness for the upright in heart.
Rejoice in the LORD, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his
holiness."Psalms 97 |
