“1 ¶ The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of
isles be glad [thereof]. 2 Clouds and darkness [are] round about him:
righteousness and judgment [are] the habitation of his throne. 3 A fire
goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about. 4 His
lightnings enlightened the world: the earth saw, and trembled. 5 The
hills melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of
the Lord of the whole earth. 6 The heavens declare his righteousness,
and all the people see his glory. 7 Confounded be all they that serve
graven images, that boast themselves of idols: worship him, all [ye]
gods.”
“8 ¶ Zion heard, and was glad; and the daughters of Judah rejoiced
because of thy judgments, O LORD. 9 For thou, LORD, [art] high above all
the earth: thou art exalted far above all gods. 10 Ye that love the
LORD, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth
them out of the hand of the wicked. 11 Light is sown for the righteous,
and gladness for the upright in heart. 12 Rejoice in the LORD, ye
righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness.” (Psalms
97:1-12 AV)
