The Lord reigneth; let the earth rejoice; let the multitude of isles be glad thereof.
诗篇 97
概述
诗篇第九十五篇是欢欣赞美的呼唤:「来啊!我们要向耶和华歌唱!」神是大神,超乎万神之上,是创造天地的神;然而诗篇突然警告:「今日若听见祂的声音,就不可硬着心」,要效法在旷野试探神的那一代。
Key Verses
Clouds and darkness are round about him: righteousness and judgment are the habitation of his throne.
A fire goeth before him, and burneth up his enemies round about.
The heavens declare his righteousness, and all the people see his glory.
Ye that love the Lord, hate evil: he preserveth the souls of his saints; he delivereth them out of the hand of the wicked.
