Psalms 97
1 The Lord is King, let the earth have joy; let all the sea-lands be glad.
Huic David, quando terra ejus restituta est. [Dominus regnavit: exsultet terra; lætentur insulæ multæ.
2 Dark clouds are round him; his kingdom is based on righteousness and right judging.
Nubes et caligo in circuitu ejus; justitia et judicium correctio sedis ejus.
3 Fire goes before him, burning up all those who are against him round about.
Ignis ante ipsum præcedet, et inflammabit in circuitu inimicos ejus.
4 His bright flames give light to the world; the earth saw it with fear.
Illuxerunt fulgura ejus orbi terræ; vidit, et commota est terra.
5 The mountains became like wax at the coming of the Lord, at the coming of the Lord of all the earth.
Montes sicut cera fluxerunt a facie Domini; a facie Domini omnis terra.
6 The heavens gave out the news of his righteousness, and all the people saw his glory.
Annuntiaverunt cæli justitiam ejus, et viderunt omnes populi gloriam ejus.
7 Shamed be all those who give worship to images, and take pride in false gods; give him worship, all you gods.
Confundantur omnes qui adorant sculptilia, et qui gloriantur in simulacris suis. Adorate eum omnes angeli ejus.
8 Zion gave ear and was glad; and the daughters of Judah were full of joy, because of your decisions, O Lord.
Audivit, et lætata est Sion, et exsultaverunt filiæ Judæ propter judicia tua, Domine.
9 For you, Lord, are most high over the earth; you are lifted up over all other gods.
Quoniam tu Dominus altissimus super omnem terram; nimis exaltatus es super omnes deos.
10 You who are lovers of the Lord, be haters of evil; he keeps the souls of his saints; he takes them out of the hand of sinners.
Qui diligitis Dominum, odite malum: custodit Dominus animas sanctorum suorum; de manu peccatoris liberabit eos.
11 Light is shining on the lovers of righteousness, and for the upright in heart there is joy.
Lux orta est justo, et rectis corde lætitia.
12 Be glad in the Lord, you upright men; praising the memory of his holy name.
Lætamini, justi, in Domino, et confitemini memoriæ sanctificationis ejus.]
