197:1 See Ps. 93:1The Lord reigns, 97:1 Ps. 96:11let the earth rejoice;

let the many 97:1 See Ps. 72:10coastlands be glad!

297:2 Ex. 19:9; Deut. 4:11; 5:22; 1 Kgs. 8:12; See Ps. 18:11Clouds and thick darkness are all around him;

97:2 Ps. 89:14righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

397:3 See Ps. 21:9; 50:3Fire goes before him

and burns up his adversaries all around.

4His 97:4 Ps. 77:18lightnings light up the world;

the earth sees and 97:4 [Ps. 96:9]trembles.

5The mountains 97:5 Nah. 1:5; [Judg. 5:5] melt like 97:5 See Ps. 68:2wax before the Lord,

before 97:5 Josh. 3:11the Lord of all the earth.

and all 97:6 Isa. 40:5; 66:18; [Ps. 96:3]the peoples see his glory.

7All worshipers of images are 97:7 Isa. 42:17; 44:9put to shame,

who make their boast in 97:7 Ps. 96:5worthless idols;

97:7 Heb. 1:6worship him, all you gods!

8Zion hears and 97:8 Ps. 48:11is glad,

and the daughters of Judah rejoice,

because of your judgments, O Lord.

9For you, O Lord, are 97:9 See Ps. 83:18most high over all the earth;

you are exalted far above 97:9 See Ps. 95:3all gods.

10O you who love the Lord, 97:10 Prov. 8:13; Amos 5:15; Rom. 12:9; See Ps. 34:14hate evil!

He 97:10 Ps. 31:23; 37:28; 121:4; 145:20; Prov. 2:8preserves the lives of his 97:10 See Ps. 30:4saints;

he 97:10 Dan. 3:28; 6:27; Acts 12:11delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

1197:11 Ps. 112:4; 118:27; Prov. 4:18Light 97:11 [Prov. 11:18; Hos. 10:12; James 3:18]is sown97:11 Most Hebrew manuscripts; one Hebrew manuscript, Septuagint, Syriac, Jerome Light dawns for the righteous,

and joy for the upright in heart.

and 97:12 See Ps. 30:4give thanks to his holy name!
