Psalms 97

1 The LORD reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the distant shores be glad.

1 耶和华作王！愿地快乐！ 愿众海岛欢喜！

2 Clouds and darkness surround Him; righteousness and justice are His throne’s foundation.

2 密云和幽暗在他的四围； 公义和公平是他宝座的根基。

3 Fire goes before Him and consumes His foes on every side.

3 有烈火在他前头行， 烧灭他四围的敌人。

4 His lightning illuminates the world; the earth sees and trembles.

4 他的闪电光照世界， 大地看见便震动。

5 The mountains melt like wax at the presence of the LORD, before the Lord of all the earth.

5 诸山见耶和华的面， 就是全地之主的面，便消化如蜡。

6 The heavens proclaim His righteousness; all the peoples see His glory.

6 诸天表明他的公义； 万民看见他的荣耀。

7 All worshipers of images are put to shame—those who boast in idols. Worship Him, all you gods!

7 愿一切事奉雕刻的偶像、 靠虚无之神自夸的，都蒙羞愧。 万神哪，你们都当拜他。

8 Zion hears and rejoices, and the towns of Judah exult because of Your judgments, O LORD.

8 耶和华啊，锡安听见你的判断就欢喜； 犹大的城邑 也都快乐。

9 For You, O LORD, are Most High over all the earth; You are exalted far above all gods.

9 因为你—耶和华至高，超乎全地； 你被尊崇，远超万神之上。

10 Hate evil, O you who love the LORD! He preserves the souls of His saints; He delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

10 你们爱耶和华的，都当恨恶罪恶； 他保护圣民的性命， 搭救他们脱离恶人的手。

11 Light shines on the righteous, gladness on the upright in heart.

11 散布亮光是为义人； 预备喜乐是为正直人。

12 Rejoice in the LORD, you righteous ones, and praise His holy name.

12 你们义人当靠耶和华欢喜， 称谢他可记念的圣名。
