Psalms 97
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Clementine Vulgate, 1598
1The LORD reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad.
1Psalmus ipsi David. [Cantate Domino canticum novum, quia mirabilia fecit. Salvavit sibi dextera ejus, et brachium sanctum ejus.
2Clouds and darkness are round about Him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of His throne.
2Notum fecit Dominus salutare suum; in conspectu gentium revelavit justitiam suam.
3A fire goeth before Him, and burneth up His adversaries round about.
3Recordatus est misericordiæ suæ, et veritatis suæ domui Israël. Viderunt omnes termini terræ salutare Dei nostri.
4His lightnings lighted up the world; the earth saw, and trembled.
4Jubilate Deo, omnis terra; cantate, et exsultate, et psallite.
5The mountains melted like wax at the presence of the LORD, at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
5Psallite Domino in cithara; in cithara et voce psalmi;
6The heavens declared His righteousness, and all the peoples saw His glory.
6in tubis ductilibus, et voce tubæ corneæ. Jubilate in conspectu regis Domini:
7Ashamed be all they that serve graven images, that boast themselves of things of nought; bow down to Him, all ye gods.
7moveatur mare, et plenitudo ejus; orbis terrarum, et qui habitant in eo.
8Zion heard and was glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoiced; because of Thy judgments, O LORD.
8Flumina plaudent manu; simul montes exsultabunt
9For Thou, LORD, art most high above all the earth; Thou art exalted far above all gods.
9a conspectu Domini: quoniam venit judicare terram. Judicabit orbem terrarum in justitia, et populos in æquitate.]
10O ye that love the LORD, hate evil; He preserveth the souls of His saints; He delivered them out of the hand of the wicked.
