97 Glory of God’s Reign

1 The Lord raigneth, let the earth reioyce: let the multitude of Isles bee glad thereof.

2 Clouds and darkenesse are round about him: righteousnesse and iudgement are the habitation of his throne.

3 A fire goeth before him: and burneth vp his enemies round about.

4 His lightnings inlightned the world: the earth sawe, and trembled.

5 The hilles melted like waxe at the presence of the Lord: at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.

6 The heauens declare his righteousnesse: and all the people see his glory.

7 Confounded be all they that serue grauen images, that boast themselues of idoles: worship him all yee gods.

8 Sion heard, and was glad, and the daughters of Iudah reioyced: because of thy iudgements, O Lord.

9 For thou, Lord, art high aboue all the earth: thou art exalted farre aboue all gods.

10 Yee that loue the Lord, hate euil; hee preserueth the soules of his Saints: hee deliuereth them out of the hand of the wicked.

11 Light is sowen for the righteous: and gladnesse for the vpright in heart.

12 Reioyce in the Lord, ye righteous: and giue thanks at the remembrance of his holinesse.

All scripture is given by inspiration of God and is profitable for doctrine, reproof, correction, and instruction in righteousness (2 Timothy 3:16).
