PSALME 97. (Book 97)
A meditation upon the day of Iudgement, and a prayer for mercy and salvation.
THe Lord is King, the earth may be glad thereof: yea, the multitude of the Isles may be glad thereof.
2 Clouds and darknesse are round about him: righteousnesse and iudgement are the habitation of his seat.
3 There shall go a fire before him: and burn up his enemies on every side.
4 His lightnings gave shine unto the world: the earth saw it, and was afraid,
5 The hills melted like war at the presence of the Lord: at the presence of the Lord of the whole earth.
6 The heavens have declared his righteous∣nesse: and all the people have seen his glory.
7 Confounded be all they that worship carved images, and that delight in vain gods: worship him all ye gods.
