97 The Lord is king! Earth, be glad!
    Rejoice, you islands of the seas!
² Clouds and darkness surround him;
    he rules with righteousness and justice.

⁵ The hills melt like wax before the Lord,
    before the Lord of all the earth.
⁶ The heavens proclaim his righteousness,
    and all the nations see his glory.

⁹ Lord Almighty, you are ruler of all the earth;
    you are much greater than all the gods.
