Psalm 97 | O Livro

1 O SENHOR domina e governa sobre tudo o que existe. Que a Terra inteira se alegre com isso! Que os vastos e distantes continentes se regozijem com essa verdade!

2 Nuvens e escuridão rodeiam-no; a retidão e a justiça são os fundamentos do seu trono.

3 À sua frente vai um fogo que consome todos os seus inimigos.

4 Os seus relâmpagos atravessam todo o firmamento; toda a Terra vê o que acontece e estremece.

5 As montanhas derretem-se como cera diante do SENHOR que domina toda a Terra.

6 Os céus proclamam a sua justiça; a sua glória é vista por todos os povos.

7 Que fiquem envergonhados todos os que adoram imagens de escultura, e têm vaidade nesses ídolos inúteis! Que todos esses pretensos deuses se inclinem perante o Senhor!

8 Sião e todas as cidades de Judá ouviram falar da tua justiça, SENHOR, e se alegraram.

9 Pois tu, SENHOR, dominas sobre toda a Terra; és bem superior a todos esses falsos deuses.

10 Os que amam o SENHOR, aborreçam o mal; ele protege a vida do seu povo e livra-o da mão dos maus.

11 A luz é feita para os retos e a alegria para os que têm um coração íntegro.

12 Alegrem-se, os que são justos aos olhos do SENHOR, e deem louvores ao nosso santo Deus!

English Standard Version

The Lord Reigns

1 The Lord reigns, let the earth rejoice; let the many coastlands be glad!

2 Clouds and thick darkness are all around him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.

3 Fire goes before him and burns up his adversaries all around.

4 His lightnings light up the world; the earth sees and trembles.

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

6 The heavens proclaim his righteousness, and all the peoples see his glory.

7 All worshipers of images are put to shame, who make their boast in worthless idols; worship him, all you gods!

8 Zion hears and is glad, and the daughters of Judah rejoice, because of your judgments, O Lord.

9 For you, O Lord, are most high over all the earth; you are exalted far above all gods.

10 O you who love the Lord, hate evil! He preserves the lives of his saints; he delivers them from the hand of the wicked.

11 Light is sown* for the righteous, and joy for the upright in heart.

12 Rejoice in the Lord, O you righteous, and give thanks to his holy name!
