Psalms 96

1For the same David, when his land was restored again to him. The Lord hath reigned, let the earth rejoice: let many islands be glad.● 2Clouds and darkness are round about him: justice and judgment are the establishment of his throne.● 3A fire shall go before him, and shall burn his enemies round about.● 4His lightnings have shone forth to the world: the earth saw and trembled.● 5The mountains melted like wax, at the presence of the Lord: at the presence of the Lord of all the earth.● 6The heavens declared his justice: and all people saw his glory.● 7Let them be all confounded that adore graven things, and that glory in their idols. Adore him, all you his angels:● 8Sion heard, and was glad. And the daughters of Juda rejoiced, because of thy judgments, O Lord.● 9For thou art the most high Lord over all the earth: thou art exalted exceedingly above all gods.● 10You that love the Lord, hate evil: the Lord preserveth the souls of his saints, he will deliver them out of the hand of the sinner.● 11Light is risen to the just, and joy to the right of heart.● 12Rejoice, ye just, in the Lord: and give praise to the remembrance of his holiness.●
